I agree; sounds promising, and fairly comprehensive!

Terminology is harder. For me, "sync with" has always been too
ambiguous, though I'm coming round to thinking of "A sync-with B" to
mean that A should pick up whatever B is playing. I suppose that if you
have "A sync-to B" (where B picks up A's playlist), then the other
direction could be "A sync-from B"; but "sync with" is 7.3's
nomenclature.  I like the word "release," though I guess "unsyc B"
(without the "from") is probably clear enough.  Heh, the opposite of
"release" could be "imprison" or even "enslave" (the latter would make
it clear that A is the master!)

So, if I'm listening to A, and want to sync what it's playing to both B
and C, then with the Controller on A, would I do something like this:

OtherPlayers -> SyncTo -> B ->
<- [to SyncTo player list] C ->

(Using "->" and "<-" for left/right arrows, followed by scrolls)? I
think that'd make sync'ing with multiple players pretty easy (perhaps
only choosing a Synchronizer pre-prepared sync group would be simpler).
(Probably don't even need that left arrow, if going right to select B
doesn't actually leave the list of players.)
