It's not the main use case, it's probably the only use case :)
The thing with the context menu is just a variety and some eye candy,
right now the context menu always claims that you are looking at the
last disc of the set which can of course be confusing but is just a
detail.

Some people also play albums through the context menu and that would
alway still play the whole album without a change but then all the
SqueezePlay menus don't know individual discs in multiple-disc sets
anyway.

I could live with just an extension to the "playlistcontrol" CLI command
but that would mean only Apps like iPeng that have their own play logic
(probably also OrangeSqueeze or SqueezeCtrl) can use it while the ones
like yours or SqueezePad which completely rely on the menus will only
know albums but then they don't have menus for the individual discs
anyway because these are not in the menu system.
