Steve Litchfield puts WMAPlus! through its paces and concludes that it's a welcome step towards Media Player compatibility, but that it needs serious work on its stability.

If Filamoon hasn't changed the code for the hotkeys they are hard wired by the skin, so you should be able to get around that by installing a different skin. Track properties are not implemented in the MMF version of OggPlay yet, so that's just a missing feature. Neither is the volume boost, so I guess Filamoon must have added that. As for the stablility I can't comment as I'm still on the non-MMF version of OggPlay 😊

I wonder if the actual WMA codec is a filamoon thing, or something open source? In other words, could WMA support be added to the MMF-compatible OggPlay?

WMA support existed in the Sendo X2, so it can't be too awkward to add it to either MMF or non-MMF applications.
