Re: sorting on columns in playlists and libraries

I put the genre-bpm-rating in the comments field so that it is tranferrable 
between different players. If I just sort on the comment field, I get a very 
usable listing for playing live.

Oh, now I know what you meant. You mean the "Track", "Album", etc. columns. 
Sorry for misreading. As far as I can tell, the reason sorting doesn't work on 
playlists is because some people want their playlists in a specified order, and 
sorting the list might kill that. But I'm not a developer or designer, so I 
can't really speak for them.
