Given the properties of a track match that of a slide, and the same for a tracklist matching that of a slide set. Edit: Also consider that some slides, as with Gwenview, can be movies (like animated GIFs & Co), so that mapping makes even more sense (to me).

  Ah, with that in mind it makes sense. I guess the analogies break down a bit though, since you can't really "play" an image. Would it make sense to use "pause" as "stop" too, if it's not a video?
