It looks like it needs to be hard-coded for compatibility with every app, which makes it not so friendly. Wouldn't work with the unofficial Google Music Desktop Player (https://www.googleplaymusicdesktopplayer.com/), for instance, which I use heavily.

EDIT: Nevermind, this ticket looks like it might: https://github.com/MarshallOfSound/Google-Play-Music-Desktop...

Ah that's pity. I'm using it for Rhythmbox and Spotify where it works fine.

By using a white-list? I thought it worked with every app which uses the MPRIS DBus interface.
