Are you sure? I tried 3 times and every time I got the playlist of the
sync group restored. The code allowed that. 
When I breap up a group, the playlist, for each player I first unsync it
and re-sync it with it previous sync group if any - LMS will copy the
playlist from the other sync group players.
Then, if that player is happens to be alone in its sync group, I restore
the playlist from what I memorized when the Group Player was assembled.
With that logic, if all players of a sync group happens to be part of a
Group Player, then when the first one is detached, there will be no
"remaining" sync group member yet, so LMS can't reset the playlist, so I
do it. Then when I detach the second one of the former sync group, LMS
will grap the playlist from the first detached one and I won't do
anything ... and so on

I will think about it but what to do if more than one is playing? Last
one wins? First one wins? nothing? It might also surprise some useer so
I'll have to make it an option

You're welcome - Our LMS is in fact in a very good shape for a
5-years-old-discontinued-product. I'm afraid that Logitech will decide
to pull it back because of the raise of smart homes and smart speakers
:)
And I agree, what Michael is doing in general and with Spotty in
particuler is fabulous. He supports my efforts a lot and without his
advices, I would not be able to do what I do
