As for the Music fanart, i think will be very good option for the MusicVisualization screen.
Cheers

Done. I've added music fanart to the addon and pushed the changes to the git repo. You can now set two paths in the settings, one for video and one for music. Do not make them the same, the image cleaning process will remove images of different types (ie, video grabber removes music and vice versa). The service portion of the addon will also pass along music and video database update events and start the correct grabber.
I did not create a setting to toggle the video/music grabbers on/off. This was done on purpose as the goal for this addon is to be hands off and easy for users and skinners. If people want something more complicated or with more settings they are welcome to use the artwork organizer addon mentioned previously. As it stands now all you should need to do is download this addon and let it run (pointing skins towards the right directories of course).

What's the chance of any of that?
That sounds like more of a skinner responsibility as my addon is not creating any views. I'm simply taking the existing fanart images and putting them in a directory for slideshows. A skinner could overlay the information you are asking for and create the clickable actions. This is IF they can determine what image artwork is being shown - probably not an easy task given the CRC hash all the image names are converted to. I'll let a skinner comment on the plausibility of this.
