Is there a way to disable this function?

https://github.com/MusicPlayerDaemon/MPD/blob/master/src/decoder/plugins/OpusDecoderPlugin.cxx#L54-L59

It make impossible to choose to use the EBU R 128 recommendation of -23 LUFS on all files, by imposing the -18 LUFS default target of ReplayGain for everything that is not Opus.

EDIT: I found what I think is an even better option, supporting the REPLAYGAIN_REFERENCE_LOUDNESS tag (on the ReplayGain side) that is already supported by some software1. So it could be set to -23.00 LUFS for people following the EBU R128 while the default if not present would assume -18.00 LUFS for retro-compatibility.

Thanks.
