Plugin to play only part of track?

Need some plugin to play only part of few tracks in playlist/media library - from defined start time to defined end time.
Start and end times is different for tracks and should be stored in some database - foo_customdb, additional list file, but not in tags - to not modify original music-file.

Purpose: play in playlists only defined part of soundtracks files without editing them.
Ex. I need that some soundtrack is played only from 1:20 to 2:05.

Preferrable, that original music-file remain stored in foobar media library, as other music files, for which partial play is not required.

Checked CUE:
- not found way to set up end time - track is played till the end or I got second track into my playlist (from specified end-time to end of music-file)
- original music-file should be moved outside media library.
Checked foo_bookmarks:
- no way to set up end time.

foo_skip does what you like but it stores the timepoints as tag.

Thank you!!
In fact, foo_skip (1.3) perfectly gets timepoints from field SKIP of foo_customdb (0.1.0_beta1), music files are not changed.

Few tricks:
If "Skip even manually selected track" is set, foo_skip allow to set time before "start" manually, but does not allow to set after "end" - skipping is activated in a second.
If "Skip even manually selected track" is not set, double-clicked tracks is played completelly - from 0:00 till, but setting time after "end" is allowed.
