suggestion : musicbrainz statistics, context functionality

[Nicholas Leners]

Amarok team,

 I absolutely love the program and am blown away at what a robust and 
innovative program Amarok has become. I have two simple adjustment 
requests that would make me so happy in a strange and neat-freak kind of 
way.

 I would like to see the option to not display the musicbrainz 
statistics in the context browser (to the right of the album art). When 
I have set my desired window size, that text gets compacted and 
stretches out that area way too much. It's visually kind of unnerving if 
the amarok window isn't set to full screen. Perhaps make the Musicbrainz 
a layered menu similar to how the favorites and labels tabs are? This 
would let the information be presented horizontally and easily hidden 
should the user choose.

Secondly, when my context browser is displaying all of the other albums 
by whatever artist is playing, it expands the album that the song is on 
each time. For example, when I'm listening to a Nick Drake song, it will 
open and list the tracks on his debut, Five Leaves Left. But if I hide 
the track listing, it will re-open the track listing when the next song 
on the album plays. I would simply like the albums to not display the 
track listing until clicked upon, and not open automatically when the 
track begins.

Two very minor nitpicks, and again, kudos to your work on this fantastic 
program. Thank you for reading my suggestions.
