You may have asked this before, so thank you for your persistence.  At
the time, I attempted to do this, but I could not figure out how to get
the current track Id from the LMS using CLI and I gave up (temporarily).
I just gave it another look and I figured it out.  I can get the
current track path with "path ?" and then using that to get the id from
the songinfo command "songinfo 0 1 url:<path>".  I would return a value
only if the track is not remote.  If the current track is a remote
stream, %ID% would return an empty string.

How does that sound?
