There are a few problems left in this plugin:

- fluidsynth decodes in real time, while MPD prefers to buffer as
  quickly as possible; as a workaround, this plugin uses a timer
  object to synchronize with real-time playback

- I don't know yet how fluidsynth tells me when the song has ended

- the "soundfont" configuration setting is not yet documented, and it
  will likely change soon (in favor of a per-decoder configuration
  block)
