That's because that's supposed to be a part of the player
information/status while starting to browse through TrackInfo takes you
back to your Library/Internet Sources. The idea is: NowPlaying shows
everything around Player/Server status, the Main menu shows content. By
this logic, the TrackInfo takes you out of NowPlaying while the player
info does not.
Playier info has an inverted background to show that difference.
Although I agree it's not perfectly stringent since some plugins that
contain player related stuff might still show up under Settings/Extras
while the Player Info can indeed sometimes contain sources.
That swiping left takes you to a different screen from player context
is something I can't avoid, the playlist shows up because of the
wraparound. It does pop the player context menu stack, though, so if you
go back to the players screen it will indeed show players.

Yes, that's the idea. But it only applies to the players screen itself.
I wanted to remove it if you open the context menu but found it useful
to be able to remove the controls to free up some space. Please file a
ticket if you find this confusing.
