For Albums/Playlists it has three modes (Play, Add, Add Next) that define the single-tap behavior. If Play is dropped from the list you are left with Add and Add Next. For all other iTems iPeng presents a context menu from which you can - amon other stuff - select Play, Add or Add Next.

That's harder to control when they're not paying. ...and harder to do :) Actually I'd prefer to have a party mode at all before defining a 3-page set of requirements that finally makes me not implement it because it would take too long.
