Have the ability to define different colours for the bars in the default vis for columns UI.
Meaning being able to split the bars into either two or three sections (both options would be nice) and assign different colors to those sections, i.e., one color for the bottom section and one for the top section. Bars should be divided according to window height.
Ability to use gradients for the bars could be really neat as well.
E.g. for play/pause button
eg. columns playlist a| column playlist b instead of what happens now when u add another playlist columns playlist a| column playlist a
eg. %userprofil%\ or %windir%\ …..
To avoid panel sizes from being changed accidentally (different from the current lock, which just keep the size when foobar is resized)
Make the background of Album List Panel invisible so background artwork can show through.
These features will never be implemented:
serves no purpose, toolbar menu works fine
This occurs because common controls version 6 will use the font specified in the current theme instead (if one is specified).
( useful in not displayig redundant information in albums…)
I dont think this will work in any nice way. —

Check boxes in playlist beside each track to select certain tracks in a long playlist and perform actions on them (like in itunes).
reason: no different to using selections, etc.
