Martin, Can also you please attach these files to the bugs themselves in bugzilla? That way we can keep track of them more easily. >> I would say that because the duration bar is horizontal, buttons >> that have arrows horizontally are related.

Now they are real >> Next and Previous buttons, would I say. >> >> In addition the Play button points right into the songs browser. TK> I can see your point when it comes to the arrangement of the TK> previous and next buttons, but I have two criticisms: TK> 1) The button bar doesn't look right: the most important control TK> buttons have been moved to an area with lower visual priority, TK> where people are less likely to be able to find them easily.

I like the idea of the button bar with the firefox/evince-like searching, although the positioning isn't the best, and there should be an "All" option as well as the current patch implements.

Agree with this, vertical alignment is counterintuitive and not used in almost any audio player from iTunes on down.
