Good day everybody!
I just registered with xbmc.org (I've been lurking around before...) as I felt compelled to express my agreement with this post.
I would like to add my voice to the other's requesting embedded cuesheet support for FLAC and other lossless audio formats (personally I very much prefer WavPack).
IMHO a one-file-per-CD format with the accompanying cuesheet is the only practical container that allows me to have a perfect copy of my original CDs.
Embedding the cuesheet in the audio file metadata (toghether with other material, like e.g. album art) makes much sense as it is the only way to keep all the relevant stuff together.
To the campaigners of the one-file-per-track method, I would like to ask how do they cope with HTOAs in the first track pregap...
Cheers!

Edit: I forgot to mention that having the cuesheet embedded with the audio files automagically resolves the issue of having the content duplicated in my library: 1 entry for the audio file + n entries for the "virtual" tracks
