Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

The manual does not explain what "party mode" is.  The status bar help
text is not helpful at all; when you hover the cursor over the Party
Mode menu entry, it laconically says "Change the status of the party
mode".  (Is that even English?)

I was scared that it would ruin all my playlists and send my email
address to the spammers, but I tried it anyway.  It seems to toggle a
full-screen view.  Then why is it not called "Full Screen"?  Does it do
something more?

The top Google hit http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=694932 seems
inconclusive to me.  Does Party mode involve changes in how the play
queue can be manipulated and/or how the computer can be used?

Minimal fix:
 * Describe Party Mode in the on-line help

Bonus points:
 * Improve the Status bar help text
