REW is a powerful tool. I don't think it's a good idea to integrate it into a music player. The developer updates REW often, and integration like this makes maintenance a nightmare.
Once you've created your EQ filters in REW, you can export the filter impulse responses as WAV files, so it's pretty easy to create filter files that can be used with the various convolvers available. If you just want to knock down some bad room modes, it's pretty easy to do. I'll admit that I haven't mastered using it beyond that simple kind of EQ.
I use REW to measure my speaker's in-room response, then export the room impulse response to use with Denis Sbragion's free DRC-FIR room correction software. I get excellent results with DRC-FIR -- smooth bass response and very stable imaging -- though you need a bit of technical knowledge to use it (e.g. how to use sox for file conversion.)
