Interesting! After our discussion in that other thread I did have a
little poke around inside the Random Mix plugin to see how it might be
modified along the lines we discussed, but my Perl really isn't that
good (and I couldn't make sense of extracting Genre information).  Do
you think your new effort might be capable of being integrated as a new
option within Random Mix?
