/*
* This is the sticker database library. It is the backend of all the
* sticker code in MPD.
*
* "Stickers" are pieces of information attached to existing MPD
* objects (e.g. song files, directories, albums). Clients can create
* arbitrary name/value pairs. MPD itself does not assume any special
* meaning in them.
*
* The goal is to allow clients to share additional (possibly dynamic)
* information about songs, which is neither stored on the client (not
* available to other clients), nor stored in the song files (MPD has
* no write access).
*
* Client developers should create a standard for common sticker
* names, to ensure interoperability.
*
* Examples: song ratings; statistics; deferred tag writes; lyrics;
* ...
