Idea: {song_genre} variable #11

Since Spotify is able to sort songs by Genre and Mood, it'd be cool to be able to display that in the custom status. If a song has multiple genres, you'd probably want to display just 1 primary genre, but I'm not sure how you'd decide which genre that is.

Hello! Spotify doesn't have genres for tracks, only for artists (which is still incomplete sometimes). I'll think about your idea, but, currently, I have in mind two implementations:

  1. Add dynamic variables like {song_genre1} {song_genre2} and so forth (number of genres that artist has).
  2. Add one variable, {song_genre}, and make an additional interface to choose which genre to use.

I'm leaning towards the second option, but feel free to share with me your thoughts.
