Impressive work, Soren. I suppose that with this overhaul it would be
a good time to review the TrackNavigators in Amarok, which are
inherently broken and have a pretty high priority to be fixed. Since
you've had a good wade through the playlist code, does your new
infrastructure allow us to improve the track navigators? Any thoughts
on how they might be reimplemented?

Cheers
