Thanks!
Emms contains code to be able to plug in code as you have written.
Defining a new simple command player is easy:
(define-emms-simple-player pausing-mplayer '(file url)
(regexp-opt '(".ogg" ".mp3" ".wav" ".mpg" ".mpeg" ".wmv" ".wma"
".mov" ".avi" ".divx" ".ogm" ".asf" ".mkv" "http://"))
"mplayer" "-slave")
You can then add functionality to that player:
(emms-player-set emms-player-pausing-mplayer
'pause
'emms-player-pausing-mplayer-pause)
; ^ I want a prize for that function name!
Which can be used easily:
(defun emms-pause ()
"Pause the current player."
(when emms-player-playing-p
(funcall (emms-player-get emms-player-playing-p 'pause))))
etc.
The rest of the player then has to be made aware of the "paused"
state, but emms does not care otherwise. :-)

I haven't found the "repeat this track" one too useful. If you
have working code, please submit it, we will add it to CVS
(probably in a new file). :-)
