There is now support for context menus in all UIs in one-browser. Only
the Default skin in the Web-UI. These context menus are driven from an
'info' action item in the corresponding XMLBrowser feed. In practice,
this means just for the local library.

For ip3k the context menu is invoked via play-hold. For WebUI is is
invoked via the *M* icon (which now means "More" instead of "MusicIP
Mix". For the WebUI it is not yet decoded whether it will be available
always or only when -Settings / Interface / Additional Playlist-
Buttons is active. For the WebUI it might be appropriate to try to
implement it in some sort of pop-up window.

An XML-Browser feed can influence which of the menu items that it
provides will appear in which UI. For many of the menus (ArtistInfo,
YearInfo, GenreInfo, FolderInfo, PlaylistInfo) the only thing that will
appear in the menu is Add/Remove favourite for ip3k and nothing at all
for WebUI.

I have implemented an enhancement, as much as a test for this
mechanism, in the RandomPlay plugin which facilities random-play for a
Genre.

I realise that empty menus are not very useful. At present, however,
there is no means to tell in advance whether a menu would yield any
entries for a particular UI.
