I've been using rhymthbox for ages and I think it almost hits all those
requirements

My essential features:
* No-brainer Google-style filtering of playlist/collection. Amarok 2
lost me here: you have to write expressions instead of just typing
partial search strings.
Yep
* Reliable support for Last.fm scrobbling. Preferably integration
with Last.fm's tagging system, and notification of when there's a
recommended song available for free download.
Scrobbling is reliable, never had problems in all the years I've been
using it. Don't know about the second bit.
* Playback, ripping, & tag editing for all of the usual media types,
esp. MP3 & Ogg. I don't really feel like re-ripping all of my CDs.
* Podcast feed support with automatic download and good control over
episode retention.
Yep. There's not great control over episode retention though
* Pause/Play & volume control via notification area icon (although
that's gone under newer desktop environments - do they provide
similar functionality without all of that stupid pop-over/pop-back
animated visual noise?)
Control for rhythmbox happens in the sound control indicator widget
these days.
