Ugh. There are 4 ways to clear a playlist:

1. View -> Clear Playlist.
2. Right-click on tab title -> Clear All Tracks.
3. Ctrl+L.
4. Ctrl+A on the listbox -> Delete.

Close Tab -> New Tab also achieves similar result. You can even do it
by middle-clicking the current tab, then middle-clicking empty space
on the tab bar.

The functionality is there. How we present it is the question, and we
decided to remove the old Clear button. Don't twist this into a "the
developers aren't listening to users" argument, because during the
discussion Adam was in fact the one most reluctant to remove the
button.

You can start the discussion again if you want to, but I'll warn that
we are generally tired of debating over UI design because everyone has
a different opinion.
