Wow, just came back from a gig and the forum is exploding.
Please calm down everybody. I get the issue and I have an idea how to change it so that it can be used with or without the queue. During beta testing, I tried different approaches that didn't work out, but this new idea should be working. I did a quick prove of concept before the gig and playlist view now behaves same as in version 2. So I'm confident I can have a solution for everyone.
Give me a week to implement it and I'm sure everything will be all right.
This is a big release that has a brand new software architecture which allows extensions much better than version 2. So we are just at the beginning of lots of improvements. Don't dump the app if a x.0.0 version does not work as expected.
