Hey there! I've been hacking with waybar-mpris this afternoon and it's really good. One thing I really like is you can customize the output, but I noticed you can't show the current player. I wanted to make 2 waybar modules, one which shows the player and another with the current song info. What do you think?

I'll add a player option for the --order option now, but it might take a bit longer to implement the 2 different instances as right now the second instance pretty much tail -f's the output of the first.

first thing added in 51c7a983a0, just add PLAYER somewhere in --order.

Added second thing in 49b3212, just run your first instance with something like --order "PLAYER" and the second with --order "SYMBOL:ARTIST:ALBUM:TITLE:POSITION".

Multiple instances sometimes get unsynchronized #4
