Your "coding style" doesn't fit upstreams. Use tabs for the
future.

I've tested your patch a bit: 

- I am missing documentation. The manpage, the help and the
  config.example have to be adjusted.
- It seems to work well on the filelist. But the format on
  different given playlists is not consistent. There are indents
  where they don't have to be.
- It's a bit confusing if the id3 tags are numbered already. They
  even don't match the sorting every time. Respectively the filenames
  if they are numbered as well. This is on both the filelist and the
  playlist. (Well we have this phenomenon on the playlist anyway :( )

There is too much potential to get bugs. If there are any, they have
to be fixed. I can't tell users to remove that feature if there is
no feasible solution. Should say not maintainable. So no, I won't
include your patch. And please consider that I won't test updated
patches. You can publish your patch at the moc forum for further
testing.

You can use your patch at any time by yourself.

Thanks for your contribution
