This regards the audio_playlist.module.
When browsing through audio, audios are shown in a table. When you click the "add to..." link it takes you to a page were you can add the selected audio to any of your playlists.
What i thought of is having a checkbox for each row in the audio table. In addition, a selectbox at the beginning of the table will show all the user's playlists and an "Add" button.
The user could then select multiple audios, select a playlist and click "Add" to add all selected audios tp the selected playlist.
I started implementing these features, added the playlist selectbox and the "Add" button, but then discovered that the audio table is not build inside the $form, but only using theme('table...
This means that even if i add the checkboxes to the table, it wouldn't be available with the $_GET, cause, as i said, it's not in the $form...

The new version of audio_playlist will be based around this audio table, as I feel that focusing on this interface will be more beneficial in the long run. In general, I aim to have in 5.0 an interface that shows the list of audio in a table with checkboxes next to each time and similar to email, allow you to add/delete from playlists and to re-order all in the same interface. Possibly implementing ajax to make drag n drop playlists/sorting, etc.... More to come.
