I am not. I already knew that blog posting (which of course Seb could not 
know), and it did not help much - the new custom layout manager is by far not 
as easy to use as the old table. His reaction clearly showed that the 
suggestion I made was not welcome, that he does not care about the problems I 
described enough to do anything about it. He even closed the bug as "INVALID", 
so the likelihood of it being looked at again was reduced to a bare minimum. 
Now, it is of course your decision what to implement and what not, what 
feature requests to care about and what not, but I just wanted to make clear 
that there are more reasons that just nostalgia to wish the old "excel style" 
playlist back - I often have the impression that you developers are not aware 
of this (which is hopefully wrong).
This is not meant offending or insulting (English is not my mother tongue, so I 
hope I don't accidentally choose the wrong words), and I still like Amarok 2 a 
lot and prefer it over 1.4. I am using trunk and it generally works and 
behaves really well.

Kind regards,
Ralf Jung
