mp3 duration play-time ?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

i know it may not be tag-problem. Though it's a very useful and important 
metadata, and most players/tools get it wrong, e.g. assuming const bitrate when 
it isn't, etc

is this on road map somewhen - or not at all?

It is possible to implement this, but it'll require teaching stagger to 
understand the entire MP3 file format, not just tag contents. It wasn't on the 
road map yet, thanks for bringing it up. I'll think about it.

Is this still in consideration? I would much appreciate this being implemented. It's one feature keeping me from switching from mutagen.

Pull requests are very welcome! It looks like mutagen just reads Xing headers rather than doing frame-level inspection. It shouldn't be too difficult to add similar functionality to stagger.
