Didn't quite work out for me - might be me reading too much into what it
can do or perhaps having it set-up incorrectly for the player I tried it
on.

I set-up a favourite of
lastmix://play?tags=whistling
and had the player set to
Player xxx/DSTM/LastMix - Don't Stop The Music support using Last.fm

The first few songs featured whistling but the rest did not.

I know that this is an odd one - since if someone chooses, say Rock, as
the seed and then gets a few tracks ... then subsequent tracks from
similar artists would probably also be Rock.
But in my case, just because someone has whistling on one track it does
not mean that other tracks from them (unless Roger Whittaker is selected
of course!) or artists like them will have it ... 
While "whistling" is an odd one to pick ... I guess the same would apply
to other tags from last.fm - like London, Running etc
