playlist->triggerTrackLoad(); // playlist track loading is on demand.
if( playlist->trackCount() >= 0 )
    loadingFinished( playlist ); // fool ourselves because nobody else would trigger this
else
    subscribeTo( playlist ); // let loadingFinished() be called by the playlist

Current code works for both types of loading, because DirectoryLoader is observer and it requires only
notification that loading is finished (and this notification should be triggered irrespective of loading type). 

And it seems to me, that in code above there is a chance that we subscribe to playlist after loading is finished.</pre>

If "this notification should be triggered irrespective of loading type" is true, then your code is correct. Discussion whether this assumption holds below:

a) if we limit ourselves to PlaylistFiles (which is okay as the code explicitly uses PlaylistFilePtr), this is nearly true with a couple of exceptions:
 1. if someone calls triggerTrackLoad() twice, he might expect that tracksLoaded() observer method is triggered twice, too. I suggest PlaylistFile::triggerTrackLoad() is modified to call tracksLoaded() before returning in case m_trackLoaded is true. This is not a problem of this call site, but an API design problem for places that take Playlist pointer and don't know whether triggerTrackLoad() is already called.
 2. PlaylistFileLoaderJob::run() has multiple (failure) return points that don't call m_playlist->notifyObserversTracksLoaded(). This will cause current DirectoryLoader code to hang infinitely. I'd be much safer if it were triggered even in error cases. I suggest creating PlaylistFileLoaderJob::slotDone() private slot and connecting it to its done() signal in its constructor and calling notifyObserversTracksLoaded() in its slotDone() signal.

b) while this piece of code would work with just above changes, I suggest that we enforce the same behaviour for all Playlists. I suggest we add notifyObserversTracksLoaded() to default implementation of triggerTrackLoad() (and document it so) so that most other playlists will behave well and tweaking other implementations of triggerTrackLoad().

In short, I'd like if every call to triggerTrackLoad() would trigger tracksLoaded() notification, sooner or later. This way it will make playlist handling much less error prone in corner cases. [OTOH, triggering tracksLoaded() every time even when already may be suboptimal especially when there are multiple observers of the playlist; what is your opinion on that matter?]</pre>

I've started my changes with an implementation of a ASXPlaylist class,
due this work I've found that implementation of different playlist file
types has different logic, as result I end up with a rewriting
playlist's implementations.

As example of difference:
  -- Constructor M3UPlaylist::M3UPlaylist( const KUrl &url ) sets a url, but
     does not load playlist, therefore loading of playlist are
posponed till data from playlist are actualy needed (lazy loading)
     On the other hand constructor XSPFPlaylist::XSPFPlaylist( const
KUrl &url, bool autoAppend )  loads playlist.

The main idea of proposed changes is to create a unify code for
processing playlist files:
  -- lazy loading through LazyLoadPlaylist
  -- common functionality was moved to PlaylistFile.

It is worth to be noticed that this patch changes structure of
playlist's classes, bit does not changes their behavior, even if this behavior
is inconsistent in some cases.

In following patch-requests I plan to submit ASX Playlist parser and
organize playlists processing in more consistent way.</pre>
