[REQ] Various UI features

Most of them are pretty Spotify-inspired, admittedly :lol:

- Clicking to an artist / album (either title or cover, if possible) in the Player element directs you to the according artist/album page. Technically this feature is implemented in the "Find More from the same..." menu, but this will simplify that process.
- Ability to toggle in the right panel between playing list and lyrics, and possibly something like the preview pane, but more detailed, all with the use of a button for each and with the option of using the full panel.
- A dedicated add to playlist button that will lead to the playlist menu, instead of the send to playlist menu which may look weird if you right click on the right hand side of the screen for example.

1. Besides Find More from Same in the Context menu, you can also use it as a Hotkey. There is also the Show Links Addon that can do this.
2. Besides Send To, you can Drag & Drop on the Playlist node, onto the Playlist panels and onto a tab with the Playlist opened.
3. Please describe weird.

Sorry for the late reply, first of all.

1. Is it something that a skin creator can customize? As in having a sort of macro command, that when you click e.g. the album title in the player it will retreive tracks from the same album? If I can do it in the preview pane, why not in the player pane as well?
2. Absolutely, this is what I've been doing sort of mechanically but there's always space for error I suppose.
3. I'd say what I find weird in that case is that menus sort of stack on top of each other, and when you hover outside of them you have to do the process over again. That's a matter of preference I suppose, not that it doesn't function as expected or anything like that.

1. No, not in Skins. This would be for Addons instead like the Show Links Addon.
