I think none of them should collapse or change display, i.e. the
content should stay. It happens far to often that I'm reading a
wikipedia article of an artist while the track is reaching the end.
Same could be happening for photo's, lyrics... though I don't those
nearly as often.
I also feel the need for a "scope" for the context info displayed. For
instance when selecting a track the context panel should show info
about that one, even if it's not playing.
