Hey Andrew :)
Yes that is basically it. Thanks for writing this down.
Just a small clarification: We support only Phonon as an engine now. But Phonon can use different backends like gstreamer and xine. This makes it a lot easier for us as we are no longer responsible for all the low level audio stuff but can concentrate on other things and let people who really understand it and want to make it work work on it.
About a bounty for Amarok 1.4's sound system: You could try it but honestly we tried to fix this in 1.4. And it is badly broken. So your time and money is really better spend on Amarok 2. Amarok 2.1 will add a lot of stuff you might be missing in 2.0.1 still.
