No, currently. :-)

If no resistance, i'll add the following.

(defvar emms-playlist-window-width -25
  "Window width for the emms-playlist window when it's popuped.")

(defun emms-playlist-mode-go-popup (&optional window-width)
  "Popup emms-playlist buffer as a side window. Default value for
WINDOW-WIDTH is `emms-playlist-window-width'."
  (interactive)
  (setq emms-playlist-window-width
        (or window-width emms-playlist-window-width))
  (split-window-horizontally emms-playlist-window-width)
  (other-window 1)
  (emms-playlist-mode-go))

Even in Gnus?

I split windows *a lot*, both vertically and horizontally. Specially, i
like popuping emms-playlist buffer as a small side window, so that it
won't change view of current buffer dramatically.

I never touch frame. I hate it. Just like i hate opening links in new
windows in a web browser. :-)
