Well, the warning should be able to take care of that!

Don't invite them next time ;-). Anyway they could also mess things up
using "add (hold)" to add to the top of the playlist (ver. 7.1). So!
don't invite :-)

I agree.

I don't agree, it's to complex: 
go back into settings
find partymode 
enter password
clear playlist
back out again, and find the song/album you wanted to hear
press play

This is already implemented nicely in ver. 7.1 with add (hold)

Again the menus to control of all this would be way to complex for my
taste.
"Simple is beautifull"

I think the kind of parties and "friends" You have are different from
mine ;-) .
I don't think your scenario would happen that often at my house,
possibly after a few beers ;-), but after a couple of times i think
people will stop passing the controller to thoose with let's say
"special" music taste or anti social behavior putting their music in
front of others :-).

And anyway if everybody on the dancefloor is having a great time
because ABBA's "Dancing Queen" is playing and they shout for moore ABBA
when the next (boring) song in the playlist starts, I would really like
to be able to put som more ABBA on top of the list. In your scenario
You would have to go back into setting, password, clear playlist, find
ABBA, add.... by the time youre ready most people have left the
dancefloor i guess :-)
