Okay. I'm still having problems thinking about it. I guess I need a
real example to see how it's like.

Ah, but I meant the imaginary feature I described above, not the
sectioning/collapsing. But you are right, you should use it more!

I'll add it to the BongoHacks page.

Ah. I didn't know. But I guess this is not a feature, rather an
accident of implementation?
On second thought, maybe it might be an idea to not change it. I'm
sure somebody can think of a way to use this behaviour.

I mean that there would be only one playlist at a time. Maybe as a
minor mode?
Yeah, you're right that this is probably what
`bongo-prefer-library-buffers' is for. I'll have to think more about
how it's not exactly the same.
