Banshee is useful as it is, with loads of features that other players do not
have. Please stop thinking that your (edge) use-case is the only use-case a
media player should support, and that it is useless if it doesn't support it.

In the first place, as I explained in Bug #1094953, you were obviously confused
about the role of a play queue in the media player when you clearly needed a
playlist, and that there *is* a shuffle button in the play queue that randomizes
the order of the play queue.

Title:
  cannot insert song from play queue into playlist

Status in Banshee Music Player:
  Confirmed
Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: banshee

  When I drag a song from the "Play Queue" item to some playlist item,
  nothing happens. I would expect the song to appear in the playlist, as
  it is the case when I drag a song from the "Music" item into a
  playlist.

  Banshee 1.6.0
  Ubuntu Package Version 1.6.0-1
  Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
