I do *exactly* the same thing.  Since I have some mp3s from the late 90's - 
before ID3 - I sometimes 
have difficulty finding the music that I'm interested in.  The sought-after mp3 
files are usually 
labeled something like 01__~.MP3 (yay dos), but have been carefully organized 
in folders based on 
album / artist.

should i suck it up and tag my old mp3s, or is there a chance of searching the 
**path** of files as 
well as artists/album/titles ??  right now I usually have to go into mpd to 
find my crusty old mp3s, 
since that lets you search the path.  but mpd does not let you shuffle the 
entire collection 
(easily, (i think))

I would be willing to code this up myself - since I assume rhythmbox knows the 
paths of it's mp3s so 
should be kinda easy - but I tried for a bit to compile rb and was frustrated :/

thanks,
Tim
