Playlist organisation

An important point to factor into this discussion is that the "n playlists" index in tag view is similar to "n albums" and "n items" in providing a flat list of all playlists.

For albums and items in tag view, structured browsing is also available via MinimServer's intelligent browsing using tagged information. There is no such equivalent for structured browsing of playlists in tag view. I think this would be the right place to add some kind of structured browsing of playlists rather than by making changes to how folder view works.

Also, the "n albums" and "n items" lists have sort orders that can be configured using the Album.sortTags and items.sortTags options. The "n playlists" list is sorted by alphabetical order of playlist title with no way to change this. Some means of configuring this sort order could be useful if the number of playlists is large. For example, a specifying a sort tag such as Artist, Album or Date could tell MinimServer to look for the first occurrence of that tag in the contents of each playlist and use these tag values for sorting the list of playlists.
