Hi,

I'd like to discuss something about the UI of rhythmbox and more precisely
about the sources list.

My problem is this one:
When I play songs, I like to see the album art, and I like to have the queue
list availaible for a quick drag and drop.
But do I really need to see the source list while playing some songs?

I, most of the time, chose one source and stay on it for a while. I'd prefer
to have the "panel/sidebar" with the sources list hidden most of the time.
But if I hide it, then I won't see album art and the queue list. Annoying
(to me).

Another problem with having art and queue list plugins in the same sidebar
as the sources list is that If you have more than 4 playlists and have
last.fm and jamendo and a DAP plugged in (which is pretty common) you have
to scroll in the sourcelist.

So why not having one sidebar for the sources (which could be hidden) and
one sidebar for stuff like album art, lyrics, last.fm recomandations and so
on?

It would make more space in the sources sidebar, and more space in the
"plugins" sidebar.

Can't make a mockup right now, but if I'm not clear and you want one, I will
make some.

Regards.

Joel
