This would be handy for playing remote streams.

I use this all of the time and noticed that with 7.0, SC will
disconnect the stream shortly after playing has completed.  This
results in "winamp" being removed from the player list.  If I'm not
paying attention, I then end up adding music to the play list of
another player, potentially hijacking a playlist my kids may be
listening to at home.  (It's a surprise when Raffi is interrupted by
Porcupine Tree or Miles Davis.  It's funny at first, but gets old).

The way I work around this is I hit play again, which reactivates the
stream by playing the last-played song again.  While this is playing, I
browse what I'd like to play next and press play.

The other day, the last song played in the playlist was very short - 15
sec. or so.  This method wouldn't work.  Eventually I realized that I
could pause the stream and follow my same work-around.

The best thing would be that this didn't happen where the player
disappears from the player list because the playlist is done. 
Alternatively, if I could tell it to forget the player and restart with
another stream, I could avoid the issue with the short file.
