Media Library and Playlist improvements

I apologize in advance if any of these topics have already been covered..... I read the sticky's and did a search but did see these specific feature requests.

1) "Send to new playlist" when right clicking on a bunch of selected files in the Media Library brings up a blank text edit field in a dialog box. It would be great if Winamp could determine if all the artist and album names are the same and if so use a default name of <artist> - <album> for the new playlist (ala iTunes).

2) I'd love a feature that would allow me to sort all my playlists in the Media Library alphabetically. It would be nice if you right clicked on the word "Playlist" in the left pane and you got a context menu with sorting options. I find myself searching through the long list of Playlists I have looking for the right one.... or having to move them around into the correct order so they are easier to find.

3) Link an EQ preset to a specific playlist. I typically will create Playlists based on albums, and I tend to want to EQ albums differently since the recording quality and mixes can vary widley from album to album. I'd love to be able to tie an EQ preset to a specific Playlist so that the EQ is automatically set to the correct preset whenever I play a Playlist from the Media Library.

4) Allow users to determine their own filename format for reading metadata into the Media Library. Having the "smart" and "simple" options are cool... but they don't work very well (see my posts in General Discussion under the aac/mp4 file format thread). I have painstakingly edited all my filenames to have the exact same format and I'd just like for Winamp to give me the option along with smart and simple to have a user defined filename format which WA will use to determine metadata. Then I won't care whether ripping to mp4 (in a future release) uses the correct tagging format!


That's all for now.... more to come as I experiment more w/ the new WA.
