Historically I have Shuffled an iTunes Smart Playlist that excludes
certain Genres and songs with an iTunes rating of 1 (my shorthand for
"never play this by random").

I've found lately as my library hits about 10k tracks that shuffling
this PlayList is impossibly slow, it take ages to play the first song
and playback stutters (over wireless). When I play an album directly or
use the Random Mix I don't get this stuttering or slow startup.

So Random Mix is a good option for me except that it plays my "never
play this by random" songs because it looks at the whole library rather
than my cut down playlist.

Since SlimServer (and hence Random Mix) doesn't support ratings
(today), would it be possible to enhance the Random Mix plugin so that
you can select it to randomise a specific playlist rather than the
whole library?
