On IP3K players (Classic, Boom, etc.), PlayLog *does *add a menu to
Extras which offers a "Songs played here" list of the last 50(?) songs.
I never bothered to create a menu for Jive players (Touch, Radio, etc.)
as I didn't use them as much back when I created PlayLog. 

Also it's not terribly useful: you can see the items and right-arrow to
add them to the Log of songs played, but you can't Play a song again or
Add it to the current playlist, or even see more details. And the
timestamping could be more intelligent -- a string like "30:12:15m"
indicating something as played 30 days, 12 hours, and 15 minutes isn't,
I think, any more useful on the player than something like "30d12h" or
maybe even "30d" would be. (I think hours and minutes *are* nice within
the first 72 hours or so.)
