This matter was discussed about a year ago already.. Another (queite nice on my opinion) solution would be a checkbox in preferences to toggle the behavior AND an information bubble notifying a user that a song has been added to current playlist when using the current behavior - this would at least help to lessen the confusion of newcommers, because the current behavior that the current playlist window is hidden when searching a library and no notification is given while doubleclick is made, is indeed confusing a lot for newcommers..
