I understand that favourites were initially for streams (eg. on-line radio 
channels), and it was useful to click a favourite and immediately start playing 
that source.  However, when making an artist or genre a favourite, it's really 
not all that useful.

If I mark an artist as a favourite, it only allows me to play or add everything 
by that artist.  Being a favourite artist, it's likely that the user has 
several albums by that artist, and playing all music by the artist isn't very 
helpful.  This is especially the case with a genre.  We now have the option of 
making a new browse mode for a chosen genre, so setting a genre as a favourite 
has in some ways been depricated.

It would be better if there was an option to browse to the favourite item, 
whether that be an artist, album, genre, playlist, etc.  From there the user 
could do all the standard usual things - play an album, start a mix, etc.
