We use the same aproach, only in a way more dangerous way, but it works:
We have a currently playing playlist, it's a directory, we reload the
playlist on rounds, but we still modify the files, as in delete or add
other files. The deleted ones will not be played, liquidsoap will skip over
them, and when the playlist reloads, the new ones are already read in and
played at apropriate times.
I think a clever workaround is a webbased playlist editor where you can add
and delete files and it stores the playlist in a .pls or .txt or .m3u
format. You can check which song is playing, so you know where the playlist
is, so you can modify the beginning of it and as you move down, you can
modify the content once liquidsoap went pass them. Or at least this is what
came to my mind.
