[vorbis] Lyrics

Hi all,

Is there an effort underway to support lyrics (or, more generic,
subtitles) in Ogg streams ? I'd say the best place for such textual
data would be in it's own stream (Ogg/Tolkien for all I care ;) with
time-indices for when a certain word is said by who. This allows for
karaoke style lyrics and for simple full text lyrics dumps. It could
also be used for subtitling/closed captioning an Ogg/Tarkin stream of
an entire movie (in several languages of course, with an Ogg/Tolkien
stream for each language).

Is there anyone working on something like this ? I'd like to add
lyrics to my music collection but I'd rather see them in the Ogg then
in a separate file '<songname>.txt'.

TIA,

Paul 'WEiRD' de Weerd
