But I can add a song to the current playlist by say drag-dropping it from a
file browser, even if it is not in the collection. I can edit the Artist
etc. tags for the track. A user might not know that the lyrics are not
saved in the tags but in the db. If he tries to save the lyrics shouldn't
he be see an error that they cannot be saved if the track is not in the
collection? Otherwise he would have no way to figure out why he can edit
the Artist but not the lyrics, and the saving fails without any error.
