Importing Tracks into a collection

[Maximilian Kossick]

a quick and dirty way would be to check the current thread in the
sqlcollectionlocation showdestination dialog method, and use a default
way to determine the file location if the thread is not the gui
thread.

another way would be to add a setParameters(QMap<QString, QVariant>)
method to collectionlocation, and check for some magic values in
sqlcollectionlocation

Cheers, Max
