Yes, totally agreed. It will fix the symptom, not the cause. 
I assume as well that if players appear & disappear while the sync group
is assembled, there will be playback interruption. 
I tried on my system as well and could not reproduce the issue,
although, from time to time, in a different context, I have some players
constantly going in and out, which is painful when using Shairtunes on
synced players. I've tried to find the cause, but was never able to
figure out. Probably some dropped STMt packet which cause LMS to think
that the player has been disconnected, all that due to WiFi/other part
of my network going nuts. It would do that for an hour or two every 30
seconds, then be fine for a week or a month. I usually end hitting the
main home switch with anger :)
