Hi Simon, 

I thought a long time if I should hide the controls with the playlist
pane and came to the conclusion the (apart from the 'stop' button)
those controls are actaully not needed, when the playlist is open.

Prev+next+play are not needed, because you can just tap on the song you
want to hear.
And I guess most of the time when you want to stop a song, you don't
need the playlist anymore so can close it.

At least that was my thinking.
When do you need those controls most, even when the playlist is open? 
I think just shorten the height of the list does not look too good (I
tried it, but did not like it).

One idea I have for the future is, that one can also slide out the main
menu. The background (i.e the big cover and title of the current playing
song) together with the play/stop/next/prev controls would slide to the
left then. 
So you would have a mode with just the playlist open and the main
controls still accessible.

Don't know yet when I get time to implement it but thought that it
would look and feel quite cool.
