It is used in handling touch-to-play. The overall mechanism still works
with older SP clients.
1. In most cases where the item goAction mapping is used, it ends up
that the base *go* action is also changed such that the item-specific
mapping is irrelevant for controllers that do not support it. This is
the case for local library album browsing where you end up with a track
listing and also for remote services where a track listing does not also
contain non-audio items. The mapping is only an issue where such a track
listing does contain other (non-audio) elements, such as a Rhapsody
album-track listing.
2. In the case that the goAction mapping would be important but the
client does not support it then a workaround is in place. The result
will contain *goNow => nowPlaying*, so that client goes to the
NowPlaying screen after invoking what it thought was a browse command.
The slightly unpleasant side-effect of this is that, upon using the
Back button, there will be an empty window on the stack between the
previous browse window and NowPlaying.
There is another functional change in SP that you may wish to be aware
of, which allows CMs to be invoked by *go* actions:
https://svn.slimdevices.com/jive?view=revision&revision=9337 This is
not used by any exposed functionality at present but could be useful.
