Whilst I do not use any multi-account services, so not personally
affected by this, the idea that an account is linked to a device is (to
me at least) counter intuitive. Bit like LMS's virtual libraries, or
browse modes. I can see whay you might want to set a default account for
a device, so that (e.g.) a kid's device would have their setup and
account on the hardware-UI for that device. But in a modern systm where
you use 1 controller (e.g. Material, iPeng, Squeezer, etc) to control
multiple devices this makes no sense. The controller should know about
accounts and send the account id, or whatever, with each request. I
guess ideally LMS needs a way to define users - then each user could
have a Spotify account, BBS Sounds account, etc. Users could also have
individual favourites, playlists, etc. Probably never going to happen,
but would be (to me anyhow) more user-friendly.



*Material debug:* 1. Launch via http: //SERVER:9000/material/?debug=json
(Use http: //SERVER:9000/material/?debug=json,cometd to also see update
messages, e.g. play queue) 2. Open browser's developer tools 3. Open
console tab in developer tools 4. REQ/RESP messages sent to/from LMS
will be logged here.
