This started as a suggestion by my program director as a way to deal with #391680: DJ Attendance / Show Cover, I thought this was an interesting idea for multiple reasons.
Her idea was one program called "Covered by...", and having each playlist made append the authors name to the end as a way to signify that it was a cover.

I'm sure it could be done via the theming layer, but I thought using tokens might be a better idea.

Not sure where to start on this one, but if anyone else thinks its a good approach, I'd be willing to put time into it.

So where would the tokens be used?

I've temporarily abandoned this idea because I don't need it at the moment.
I still think that having tokens for use with automatic nodetitles/page titles would be helpful.

I'd be totally fine with adding tokens I'm just not clear on what additional ones we'd need to add. Most of our data is in CCK which generates tokens for us.

I had no idea that CCK and tokens worked like that. I don't know how I missed that one.
I'm closing this because token-ifying station_catalog is silly compared to #491824: Migrate catalog data into CCK fields
