I’d love to see this feature too. It’s really useful, and in China, similar voice chat apps (such as Kook, Heybox and OOPZ) already offer it. They can detect supported music apps and let you pick one to share its audio directly into the voice channel. I’ve attached screenshots from HeyBox and OOPZ as examples. Most of the preset sources are music apps popular in mainland China (NetEase Cloud Music, QQ Music, Kugou, etc.), but Spotify is on the list as well. :) If the app you want to share isn’t in the presets, there’s also a “More sources” option that lets you pick any other running program and share its audio instead. There’s also a dedicated “Accompaniment Volume” slider, so you can adjust the shared music’s volume separately from your voice. On the listener side, you can also right-click a member in the voice channel and adjust the volume of the accompaniment they’re sharing, independently of their voice. Hopefully this gives the devs a bit of reference. :D
