I am using the Dynamic Playlist plugin, which is great.

However, I've now got quite a few items now cluttering the dynamic playlist 
menu (especially hard to navigate on the player UI), mainly due to the 
playlists that are added from TrackStats plugin.  I know I can select what 
playlists get added to the Dynamic Playlist menu, most of them are all quite 
reasonable - I may want to access any of these at some point.

Can I suggest that some kind of structure be added to Dynamic Playlist?

Ideally, I'd like to see similar playlists grouped together, so I might have 
something like the following:


Random ->
        Artist
        Album
        Song
Last Added ->
        Artists/Albums/Songs
Played ->
        Last Played ->
                Artists/Albums/Songs
        Least Played ->
                Artists/Albums/Songs
        Most Played ->
                Artists/Albums/Songs
        Never Played ->
                Artists/Albums/Songs
        Played Long Ago ->
                Artists/Albums/Songs
Rated ->
        [1 - 5 star options] ->
                Artists/Albums/Songs
        Top rated (4 * or higher) ->
                Artists/Albums/Songs
        Unrated ->
                Artists/Albums/Songs

I suppose some people might like the menus/submenus arranged differenly (eg. 
perhaps three top-level menus to select Artist, Album or Song, then some 
breakdown within that), but I don't know how you would make it too configurable 
without a lot of effort.  It would be nice if this worked a bit like the Alien 
BBC plugin menus (Web UI and player UI), whereby maybe there are different ways 
to drill down to the playlist you want (cross-references).

The SQL Playlist plugin could be adapted to add user-defined playlists into a 
structure simply by adding the files in sub-folders within the root SQL 
Playlist folder.

Is this possible?
