As I've said before I have already experimented doing that, that is how
it works on the Search View, but I found it really annoying when you go
to pause the music only to find you accidentally added tracks to the
playlist instead because the tree has the focus. It's something you
could get used to but IMHO some important keys shouldn't have overloaded
actions like this it just become too annoying.
