That doesn't help much, I guess. The plugin will be informed every time a playlist is created or deleted, but the (in my mind) main usage: adding songs to existings playlists isn't covered here. That's why I was thinking of dealing with drag&drop/rightclick signals. I'm wondering if it takes much effort to patch rhythmbox sending signals when the function for adding songs to a playlist is called. > (Small bonus note: you can pair desktopcouches on your LAN without going > through Ubuntu One, which means that you can test this from machine to > machine even while our desktopcouch data sync is down.
