My main argument is for simplicity (both code and user support). How often does a user add/remove files and resume without re-querying? IMHO that's a fairly rare case not worth the code and confusion.
What I like about the idea of "queries as playlists" is that it leads to smart-playlist like functionality. You can have a "Unheard" query playing, and each time you update the player, resume on power-on will begin playing only unheard songs without you having to requeue each time.
Basically, if we ever see "smart playlists" which is an occasionally requested feature, I expect the queries-in-playlists things will happen anyway, so I'd see this as improving featureset.
Maybe an option, within the database, for "Insert Query" as a separate way to do this. I dunno.
