Debian has MPD package for installation, so it should be possible

What do you mean with "install the power management" AFAIK RPI's does not support power management

Do you want to display anything via python scripts to which display LCD? HDMI?

I suppose LCD, however I don't think you'll find a ready2use solution for doing that on XBian, but should be possible

if you read back at this thread you find I using Audiophonics I-Sabre DAC which has power management built in Works a treat in RuneAudio, Volumio, MoodeAudio
You can see there is actuator push button fitted on front which is wired into DAC board. DAC board is powered by +6V(up to 9V) which is plugged to RPi over GPIO. So RPi is taking power through it. Which means your sound coming out of DAC is not affected by crappy regulator on RPi Also this DAC has own TCXO clock which is perfect(this is one of the main issues on RPi)

Display is OLED connected to DAC board again which is also running fine under RuneAudio or Volumio. There are some people who working on implementation into MoodeAudio too
