on a database/indexer system like Tracker present for their playlists.
Personally we use XSPF as the default playlist format (http://xspf.org), i guess M3U
is a little whacky really as the spec doesn't have any provisions for URLs, but only for
pathnames, and was originally designed for Windows only and was "brought" to *nix
by the XMMS people who i think were the first to support M3U on *nix and had various
options for that like "Convert backslash to /", etc. bottom line is i don't think M3U is the
container format of choice for exporting.

Yes see : http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Standards/shared-filemetadata-spec
I have not added the PlayList object to that spec yet cause I have not
decided what metadata a playlist should have.
In Tracker (http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Tracker), I have added
the following to the Playlist first class object:
PlayList.DateCreated
PlayList.LastPlay
PlayList.PlayCount
PlayList.Description
PlayList.RDFQuery
The last entry (RDFQuery) is for smart playlists whoose contents are
based on the result of that query.
