Description Sandy Armstrong 2008-07-17 19:53:33 UTC 
1. Play a random song on shuffle.
2. Realize that you simply must hear the entire album now.
3. Click on album text next to play controls in the main Banshee UI.

Expected Results:

Query "album==my awesome album name" is placed in the Search field so that the library shows tracks from the album of the playing song.

Actual results:

Nothing happens, no matter how many times I click.  :-(  As stated in bug #428849, the text is not even selectable.


Awesome bonus feature:

Right-click menu on album text with options like:
-Start playing album from first track
-Prepend play queue with the rest of the album after this track
-Show all tracks from this album

Awesome bonus feature would sugged that a link button instead of a regular button would be the best UI for this.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.

This is basically the same request as bug 428849, just with a lot better ideas about implementation. Maybe you could be the one to update the patch there? That'd be sweet. :) (At the very least, I'm copying your comments on that bug so they're all in one place.)
