No :)
Theoretically it could work with the internal library because there
iPeng knows what it's doing but even there this would be 20 commands to
the server. Would probably take a minute or so and no idea what the
outcome would be.

For TrackStat, it's completely impossible. The way the menus work,
iPeng doesn't know what's in there. Take Rhapsody (which is a similar
menu), Rhapsody has a dozen menu items or so beyond the simple tracks.
Or the "Songs" menu, that doesn't contain any tracks at all.
iPeng depends on the plugin to tell it what to do with the content and
what it is (in this case: that it's a playlist). And if the plugin
says: This is not a playlist and you can only play single tracks, iPeng
can't play the whole list. It's as simple as that. And it's what's
happening here.
