Comment:
I think that Serpentine's spatial functionality is great. However, there
is currently no way for Serpentine to remember more than one playlist
and that is why I brought up making the save dialogue easier to use by
having a default playlist format automatically selected.

If there were a way that Serpentine could automatically manage more than
one project in spatial mode, it would simplify the program as users
would not have to manually select a file format, location and filename
to store their projects when they need to work with more than one
playlist at a time (e.g. working with a two disc album). Names could be
automatically generated for the playlists (Project 1, Project 2, etc.)
while still allowing the user to pick custom names. The file format
could be automatically selected (as it is now for spatial mode) and the
playlists could be stored in ~/.serpentine. Finally, the terms "export"
and "import" could replace the words "save" and "open" for the items
that are currently in Serpentine's File menu to better reflect their
functionality.

I'm not sure how the interface could best implement this new
functionality. Perhaps a dropdown list or a sidebar could contain the
automatically saved playlists so that the user could easily click
between them. There would also need to be buttons and/or menu items to
start a new project and delete the current project.
