Alternate UI?

First things first... great job. I am really pleased with all that I have seen so far. If this works out for me I will upgrade to Gold just to be a financial contributer.
Here is my situation. I have converted all of my music to MP3s. I have dedicated a PC for entertainment. I want to display the output of the computer onto the TV, and then the audio output into my stereo. All that said, I can't find a program anywhere which has a suitable UI for a TV. To be suitable for TV, you need an abnormally large font.
Your program would be perfect if a handful of screens could be selected for TV-out. If you could launch a list of just artists, albums, and playlists, then with a remote control and a TV you could navigate a whole lot of music options. Playlist setup would largely be done via the computer, not the TV interface.
Is there any chance you could squeeze something like this in in the near future, and if not, is this the type of thing that could be done with a plug-in?
Again... very nice work.
