Subspaces were sort of the point, exactly for this reason. Did I forget
to build that in?  I'm pretty sure it's doable, or else I was an idiot.
Either is possible, of course.

In any case, putting ALL metadata into the stats is hte right solution I
think, and if that means subspaces, so be it :)

FWIW, the "stats" window on the win32 GUI of icecast relies on the
flatness
of the stats structure at the mount level.  This is simply for the ease of 
viewing stats...if you start adding children to the stats tree at that 
point displaying these in a nice user-friendly way becomes..well...difficult...

It's called a tree. :)
