Yeah, but even *that* isn't quite enough. Some of the stuff on my player
I'd like to be played albumwise; some is song-by-song stuff and can be
shuffled more finely.

I wonder if what we have isn't a concept of a `subcollection', where
collections of files can be grouped into a `subcollection' which has its
own operators which apply to its members by default. So the shuffling
would apply to a bunch of individual things, and a bunch of subcollections
(`albums'), and *those* then have, by default, play-in-sequence operators
applied to them.

(But maybe I'm babbling and should shut up.)
