Question: What do you think about "touch-to-play-album" for
cover art in iPeng?
    
- I use this and like it.
- I don't use this and it disturbs me
- I don't care

I think it should be possible to do on the server side as a plugin. You
don't need to save the playlist to file, it's enough to store it in the
database if that's faster. 

It should be pretty fast as long as you don't have gigantic playlists
but gigantic playlists doesn't work good with SBS anyway, so...

If performance is a problem the plugin might even store the old
playlist in primary memory and don't save it to disk at all.

I wonder how much history it would need to have ? 
Is it enough to undo one step ?

It's also possible to have different scenarios for different
operations:
- Should it be possible to undo a "add" operation ?
- Should it be possible to undo a "delete single track" operation or
just a operation that replaces the whole playlist ?
