This is kind of by design.  I haven't prevented play.hold from invoking the 
Save Playlist functionality (if that plugin is enabled, it should still work).

My plugin contains a "Save Playlist" option in the menu displayed when you 
press and hold the Add button on the current playlist.

I wanted to retain the Save Playlist plugin, and make my plugin list a "Save 
Playlist" option if it detected that the save playlist plugin was enabled, 
thereby calling the save playlist plugin to perform that action.  However, the 
plugin contains initialisation code that forces the play.hold button to invoke 
the plugin, so instead PlaylistMan includes a copy of the Save Playlist plugin 
functionality within it.

If you are happy to do Add.hold, scroll down and select "Save Playlist" instead 
of using play.hold, then there is no need for you to enable the Save Playlist 
plugin.

I did this so that it was possible to free up the play.hold functionality for 
another use.  In my set up, I use play.hold to invoke the Song Scanner, which 
seems to be a more appropriate use of the button to me.

Nb. This part of the functionality may move into a new plugin I will write to 
map various new features to the NowPlaying.hold button.  I haven't decided 
where it belongs yet ;)
