Currently, it is not possible to have a playlist just not loop and fail
when finished. To be able to emulate such a thing, you need to load
everything in some request queue and the queue manipulation is not ideal.
I propose changing the semantics of playlist (maybe not playlist.safe())
to include a loop setting.
{{{
def playlist(~loop=true, ~mode="random", ...)
..
end
}}}
Semantics:
if loop == true then behave like old mode setting
if loop == false then
if mode == "normal" then play the tracks in order end
if mode == "randomize" then shuffle and play the tracks in the shuffled
order end
if mode == "random" then act the same as when mode == "randomize" end
end
