This may have been covered elsewhere, but using Random Mix in 6.2 I
noticed two things.

1. There is no way to "stop adding songs" in the hardware UI.
- This is annoying because at the end of every song, slimserver has to
find a new random song to add to the end of the list, resulting in a 20
second delay between songs (at least on my system with a 30 song
playlist and a subset of genres selected). So if I want a random
playlist with no delay between songs, I have to visit my computer to
select "stop adding songs". Being able to stop the addition of new
songs from the hardware UI would be infinitely preferable. 

2. The default behavior is to always add songs to Random Mixes.
- I would like to have the OPTION of adding songs dynamically to random
mixes instead of this being the default behavior. (I think the previous
versions of the plugin had this functionality). I personally want to
generate a random playlist which is static, with songs not continuously
added (this is just how I'd prefer to use it and I avoid the 20 second
delay between songs this way). Currently to do this I have to generate
the playlist and then visit the web UI to "stop adding songs". Even if
the stop option were added to the Hardware UI, I would still have an
extra step after creating a Random Mix. Being able to turn off this
functionality once in the Web UI instead of every time I want a Random
Mix would be great.

Should I go ahead and log these as bugs? If I am missing something that
will solve my issues, please let me know.
