Sorry to disappoint, but we already have such a widget called "Now Playing" which uses the MPRIS protocol which can also be added to the screen saver. I doubt writing another widget using the MPRIS protocol is big enough for a GSoC project. Now, I seem to remember the MPRIS protocol has shortcomings, so perhaps designing a revision of the protocol and adding support for that to all the major media players might qualify as a project, but that would be something you would have to talk to the MPRIS authors about, and I'm not sure it would be a KDE project then.
