That doesn't sound like a very user friendly solution. So there would
still be 'Play' and 'Add' buttons, but 'Play Next' would be on some
kind of context menu?

The goal as I understood it, was to simply to make browsing by the
different methods more consistent in the data seen by the user. And in
the process to also fix several dozen SqueezePlay browsing mistakes
that were made during development of the Duet, Touch and Radio.

I guess I don't see how the database queries being run and the data
being returned to SP, the ip3k UI, the web UI, the CLI has anything to
do with how that data is presented in a specific UI. There must be
differences in how the data is handled by each of them.

This was my greatest fear about onebrowser - that the web UI would take
a fairly large step backward because it would present things more like
SqueezePlay, which is a rather primitive interface in comparison.
