The default behaviour for the plugin is to keep the entire history of
played tracks.  My comment refers to the number of tracks shown that
will play after the current song.  You can change a preference to tell
it to delete tracks once they are played (some people like it this
way), you can also specify how many "future" tracks will be played.

By the way, it's not my plugin, it's kdf's.  He did all the hard work,
I'm just making changes.

and rolled their terrible eyes and showed their terrible claws
