To reduce screen space usage in flexible ways. E.g. to keep just the
playlist window open, because it is sufficient to control the player
with the tiny buttons at the bottom.

Also, to implement features that have been available in XMMS, too.
Some of the features of the Winamp UI probably won't be readded after
Audacious 3, but in 2.5.x they are still available.

Anyway, meanwhile I prefer the GTK interface over the skinned one.

Not true either. No need to kill it like that.

For example, you could still run audacious -m, or run audtool to control
the running Audacious instanced in many ways. Just read "man audtool"
and/or audtool --help.
