I think it should, where possible - and we're almost there (on the H300, at least).

It's useful to know that a single PLAY press gets you to a known screen when you're operating without viewing the screen.

Currently the following screens don't do this:
- Rockbox Info (PLAY performs the disk free space scan, same as SELECT)
- Playlist Viewer when selected from the Main>Playlists menu (PLAY returns to the menu above, same as LEFT)
- Sleep Timer (PLAY does nothing)
- Debug Manu (PLAY enters the selected item, same as SELECT)
- Browse x in Settings, where x = Themes, Fonts or .cfg/.wps/.rwps Files (PLAY returns to the menu above, same as LEFT). Perhaps oddly, the plugin browser works fine.

Before I start looking into making PLAY act as I expect in these cases, does anyone object (or agree)?

Hi. I agree with you on this one.
I didn't actually no that play behaved differently in these situations, I think it would be good if we always new what it was going to do, as I always use select when moving around in menus, I doubt many people would think of trying to use play to select options. However i am of course only thinking from the point of view of an h140 so i'm sure other target users might have a few objections.
