mp3cue represents one possible solution. Do you like how it works? To
me, the interface seemed kind of clunky. I'm in the process of working
on a plugin that adds each track individually to the playlist. It
works just like the old cdread plugin that is on the xmms website. In
fact, it is that plugin, hacked to read flacs instead of a CD-ROM
drive.
