i've also thought long and hard about moods, but it's so hard to judge what category to put an album in! some are slow and happy, others slow and sad...
then i saw this:
Moody - Mac OS X / Windows app to mood tag your music in iTunes
it's for mac, but the idea is pretty basic. one axis is tempo, the other is mood.

Roughly you got intense tracks at the top, calm tracks at the bottom, happy tracks to the right and melancholic tracks to the left.

it would be very possible to implement a panel like this in foobar with either 9 or 16 colors.clicking a square in the panel would write the appropriate value to the %mood% tag. of course, this would work best at a track level.
then in the playlist, you could make a column with showing a solid square graphic of the appropriate color.
anyway just something i was considering. it could probably done in Track Info Mod even. maybe i'll work on it this weekend
