Having thought a bit more about this it probably won't work how I would like it to.
I was hoping to rip my albums as one whole flac file and use the cue sheet to navigate the individual tracks. That much should work with a CUE sheet in this kind of format:

REM COMMENT "dBpoweramp"
PERFORMER "Marvin Gaye"
TITLE "What's Going On - CUE"
FILE "What's Going On.flac" WAVE
TRACK 01 AUDIO
TITLE "What's Going On"
PERFORMER "Marvin Gaye"
INDEX 01 00:00:00
TRACK 02 AUDIO
TITLE "What's Happening Brother"
PERFORMER "Marvin Gaye"
INDEX 01 03:53:30
TRACK 03 AUDIO
TITLE "Flyin' High (In the Friendly Sky)"
PERFORMER "Marvin Gaye"
INDEX 01 06:36:67
TRACK 04 AUDIO
TITLE "Save the Children"
PERFORMER "Marvin Gaye"
INDEX 01 10:26:12
TRACK 05 AUDIO
TITLE "God Is Love"
PERFORMER "Marvin Gaye"
INDEX 01 14:28:65
TRACK 06 AUDIO
TITLE "Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)"
PERFORMER "Marvin Gaye"
INDEX 01 16:10:40
TRACK 07 AUDIO
TITLE "Right On"
PERFORMER "Marvin Gaye"
INDEX 01 19:24:37
TRACK 08 AUDIO
TITLE "Wholy Holy"
PERFORMER "Marvin Gaye"
INDEX 01 26:56:05
TRACK 09 AUDIO
TITLE "Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)"
PERFORMER "Marvin Gaye"
INDEX 01 30:03:50

The problem would be, I guess, it wouldn't be able to index the individual tracks. Never mind i'll just stick with ripping my CD's as individual tracks.
Thanks again

Thanks for this response. I'm still not clear what you would gain by using the CUE sheet approach instead of ripping the album as individual tracks. Without a reasonably compelling use case for why this is needed, it's hard for me to justify the work involved in providing support for it.
