of course, no don't reinvent the wheel, that doesn't make sense. But using baloo for ratings would only be the KDE/Plasma way, the even more compatible way is to use the Freedesktop specifications and store ratings in id3 tags/vorbis comments/ape tags/... according to [0]. Of course we would have to enable baloo to read those tags, no idea if it could be changed to also write the tags (although media players would write them directly via Taglib).
