I'm sure a plugin could do this, but instead I've patched the Slimserver
source to add in a modest extra bit of alarm functionality.

With this patch applied, you get two extra alarm settings: Alarm
Shuffle and Alarm Repeat. Setting these works much the same way as
alarm volume; when the alarm occurs, the Squeezebox is set with these
values.

In laymans terms, this means that you can fiddle with your squeezebox
however you like. When the alarm fires, the volume, shuffle and repeat
settings will be changed to however they're configured in the alarm
settings.

This is a poor-man's implementation of per-playlist shuffle and repeat
settings. I have no idea how that could be implemented, but I like my
morning wake up in shuffle, and my getting dressed albums as the artist
intended. This patch does that ;-)

Otherwise, see the attached patch files.
