Family Mode with network sharing, do what no other applicaiton can
It would be nice to have a family mode in which songbird displays the playlists of all users that use the application. (usefull for party's or for use in the living room).
This would get even more usefull when libraries of varios computers in the same network start being able to work together through a central computer that stores all music (each laptop should be able to select what playlists/songs should be taken on Hard Drive with it). Simply add an option named "Family Server" which makes songbird copy all music found on other songbird players on the local network and the playlists/ratings of each user.
Another great advantage: If a user gets a new computer he simply has to install songbird and select his username from the homserver to get all his mp3, ratings and files back.
This simple alterations would make songbird work as a MCE (media center) in a way no other application can while keeping the portability and ease of use everyone wants.

Inappropriate?You bet, just to clarify though, your bug post should only include your related idea/feature requests, not a laundry list. Head here for info on how to write a good report: http://wiki.songbirdnest.com/Develope...
See part two under "Clarity". I just noticed a couple of your requests seemed to focus around this main idea.
Hopefully that makes more sense.
