It definitely makes sense to me to encapsulate as much of this
reusable functionality in reusable libraries.  A lot of the work being
done in trunk is to separate out non-Banshee-dependent bits better
(see Hyena/Hyena.Gui).

Seems like the Banshee.AudioProfiles code would belong in Mono.Media as well.

Aaron, what do you think?  I can see we wouldn't want to let this slow
progress on trunk, but if we could figure out a design and Scott and
others could run with it?
