Here's a great example of a confusing design choice. I saw that menu 
pick. I thought it meant replace tracks in the playlist itself and not 
what is currently being played. I avoided it, not wanting to edit the 
playlist.

Even in the old interface, there is this confusion between 
adding/removing tracks in the current queue and in editing a playlist.
