If something like this could be added too, it would allow for games to choose 
music based on what's happening in the game/story. If that's combined with 
mood, it would allow for total and utter freedom:

* A dull fight comes up:
        SITUATION=FIGHT, MOOD=DULL
* The fight gets tougher:
        SITUATION=FIGHT, MOOD=HECTIC
* The fight moves into space, and reveals itself to be a fight with a god:
        SITUATION=FIGHT, SITUATION=SPACE, MOOD=DIVINE, MOOD=WILD
* You won the fight, but the earth was destroyed in the process:
        SITUATION=SPACE, MOOD=HAPPY, MOOD=SAD

Perfect for Final Fantasy =)
