OK, did some test by sending the commands directly from a prompt. Indeed, file 
gets returned as you say. Thanks for that.

But then I tried a whole series of mpd client on win, droid (mpdroid, droidmpd) 
and iOS (mpod, mpad). 
1) Not a single one shows that playlist in the playlist section. Only the 
server 
playlists are shown there. How come? How can a client see the difference?

Is this intended behaviour? (or do you argue 'intended' is a client issue, not 
a 
server issue?)

2) Except for 1 client (gnome mpc on win), not a single other client showed the 
m3u in the directory structure. So only from gnome I could 'add' the file, 
which 
indeed correctly appended the 'tracks' in the playlist to the actual playlist.

Then with a direct 'save' command I could save the loaded tracks into a server 
playlist, which then made the playlist available to all clients.

So I wonder: what am I missing as it is so hard to get some basic working? Is 
it 
only a matter of having proper clients? I need one good one for every platform.
