Things I like about 3.1

OK:
Just so you all will not think I am unappreciative of all the hard work of the developers in the changes they have added in 3.1, here is a list of the things which I like about 3.1:
1. 2570 -- Selecting the Library node now lists the tracks in the libary, a great feature to allow the ability to see the library without having to detail into any of the nodes.
2. 4395 -- Setting up search parameters regarding which fields to use for search selections. IMO a great improvement in the search feature, it minimizes the necessity of using the advanced feature as much.
3. 3946 -- Setting up Multi-Core processing for selective features. While I do not fully understand the multi-core cpu processing, I know enough to know this will increase the processing performance.
4. 132 -- Although the Now Playing window and Now Playing List does not allow you to remove the # column, it does allow you to "hide" it since it is now a separate column from the title.
5. 4895 -- Now here is the best of the bunch IMO, when selecting a parent playlist in the device configuration screen, it now selects all the children playlist. For this one alone I am etermally grateful. It would be nice if this feature was added to the advanced search criteria for autoplaylists though.
6. 90 and 4826 -- Ability to configure the toolbars. This is a good one because there are alot of icons which I do not use and I would like to remove them to add the ones that I do use from scripts. But it would be nice if the Now Playing List Main toolbar was included on the list, or am I missing it?
7. 3189 -- Ability to hide columns without having to select each individual column, and the default column setup is great.
8. 4802 -- Hide Title node by default.
9. 3263: Inconsistent Album Art.
10. 4609: Date search relevant to time.
11. 2964: Stop play after current song.
12. 3416: Ability to customize Track Browser for each filter.
13. 4826: Ability to customize Toolbars. I am also looking forward to 4980 when I will also be able to customize the Now Playing toolbar.
I'm sure this list could be larger but if there are other new features they are not as intuitively easy to find, but I'll keep looking.
