--- Comment #20 from Kevin Kofler <kevin.kof...@chello.at> ---
Unfortunately, the behavior introduced by this and the followup commit:
https://invent.kde.org/multimedia/elisa/-/commit/ebd0673ec741c4710c82a86cf1cd62c15bbfaf64
is really confusing:

In the track view, if I touch (on mobile) a song, I would expect it to play
just that one song. (Whether it enqueues it or replaces the playlist with it is
up for debate, and I agree it should be configurable. But said configurability
is not actually implemented (hence me reopening this bug), because the option
that was added by your commit was actually removed by the immediate followup
commit, linked above.)

Unfortunately, what the touch does instead is that it replaces the playlist
with the entire contents of the track view! If I have not done a search, this
means it adds every single song in my collection to the playlist! Obviously,
this is NOT what I want. (And it does not even jump to that song in the
playlist, but just starts from the top, which is probably a bug, but it would
not happen if it were not behaving that weirdly in the first place.) Even when
I do a search, I am going to stop typing once I see the song I am looking for
and do not want to enqueue any other songs that happen to match the substring I
am searching for.

Enqueuing the whole album MIGHT make sense for the album view, but for the
track view, the touch should really only add that one track.

The workaround is to use the … button and the enqueue option. But that popup is
missing a replace / play now option, so if I want that, I have to first empty
the playlist, then use "Add to queue", and then play. So I have to do 6 touches
(open the playlist, empty it, close it, open the … menu, enqueue, play) instead
of the 1 I am used to, or at least only 2 as I suggest (open the … menu,
"Replace playlist and play now"). I hope you agree that this is a usability
regression.
