Re: Cannot add single tracks to playlist in 3.1b

In browseid3.pm there is a way to make it send absolute paths (Set 
playtrackalbum to 0, browse albums, select a single song, press 
play/add).  That one is not as easy to fix as the browse.pm ones, as the 
virtual path cannot easily be generated.  Plus there is also a problem with 
accepting absolute paths from the HTTP, CLI, and STDIO interfaces (in that 
it would cause the same behavior).

So, we have some options:
1) Move the virtualToAbsolute call back to HTTP::executeurl where it was to 
begin with
         Pros: It would work
         Cons: Only absolute paths would be acceptable from the CLI and 
STDIO interfaces, unless a virtualToAbsolute call were added prior to the 
call to executecommand.

2) Have executecommand take a parameter to indicate that an absolute path 
is being passed.
         Pros: It would allow executecommand to take a mixture of absolute 
and virtual paths
         Cons: How to indicate virtual/absolute from the HTTP/CLI/STDIO 
interfaces?

3) Have p3 of p0=playlist p1=play|add|load|append p2=song|playlist|dir 
indicate whether p2 is a virtual or absolute path.  0 or undef for virtual, 
1 for absolute.
         Pros: Allows a mixture of absolute and virtual paths in a well 
defined manner, with a minimal change to the existing interface
         Cons: Changes an existing interface
