Well, firstly the patch is a half-assed effort (no offense meant to
kugel there). imo (obviously) it adds nothing to rockbox, it changes 1
button in 2 screens (ignoring that its unused because plenty of people
actually like the fact its unused) on one target (and done in such a
way that it adds plenty of dead code to the other 27.)
I plan to clean it up if/when it's going in, which is not going to
happen before 3.2 anyway. And I've never heard that people like that
it's unused, I only heard that going to recording accidentally isn't so
easy (because you need a long press).
I don't really care that rec will go to playlist viewer in the WPS.
its not something I use much but concede that some might find that
useful, but you have to agree that there will be plenty of people who
would prefer it go to the eq menu (bad example of course because you
and I know that people who do want this are probably using the eq
wrongly), or maybe the bookmark or track info screen, or indeed any of
the options in the WPS context menu.
I only need the playlist viewer. And I don't need a choice for for other
screens. Not that it matters, but the pitch- and track info screen are
already accessible with combos as of now on the e200.
As for the insert action in the browsers, I WANT this sort of feature,
but I fail to see why it HAS to be the "insert" option, why cant it be
"insert shuffled" or "insert next"? My favorite option would actually
be some sort of "repeat previous insert" which would actually be
useful.
"Repeat previous insert"? What's that? I like/use insert most, so I
picked that.
I'm sure I've said it before, and I doubt I'm alone... there is a
difference between customizable buttons (which everyone agrees will be
a support nightmare) and allowing the user to choose between a few
select options for individual buttons when there is a free button to
do it with.

That reminds me of http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/5555, which is
rejected.
But I'd certainly not be against such a (limited) configurability. Just
the fact, that the aforementioned patch is closed stopped me from doing
this kind.
