Agreed that the SHUFFLEMODE idea is a bit clumsy.  WORK is better, as
you say you could have an assumption that WORK=TRACK if absent.  

You'd still have to modify the code that creates the database and
populates it during the scanning process (which would be a good time to
make the WORK=TRACK assignment).  This means that a standalone plugin
would not be enough, using this approach.

Whereas using a genre value would not require any change to the
database or scanning process, so could definitely be done as a plugin
(or amendment to an existing one, more likely).

Also agreed that simply using the CLASSICAL genre would not always
work, I think a userdefinable Genre would be better - I meant that
having this facility would at least open the option up for someone to
use CLASSICAL as a quick fix.

I'm sufficiently curious that I might even have a look myself...
