Rate music you are currently listening to

Actually you can use Ctrl+J or the Playback → Jump to playing song menu item to
jump straight to the currently playing song, and then rate it.

But yes, it would be nice to have some way to rate the currently playing song,
rather than the currently selected song. I don't see any way to implement this
in an intuitive manner though. Do you have any suggestions as to how this can be
done?

I want to just "right click" on the current played song. Also it should be integrated into the sound menu, but stars visible all the time and "left click" to change it.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

i really miss this feature as well.

i abandoned amarok quite a while ago, but i remember there being a variety of convenient ways to rate the song currently playing.

* the notifier in the menu had a stars-bar attached where you could rate the song much like explained here:

however this doesn't appear to work on natty

* in the player, the top bar, displaying the controls and the currently played song, also had a star-bar attached to it

and my favourite:
* you are able to bind global keyboard shortcuts that would assign a specific rating to the currently played song. e.g. i had ctrl+mod+1 through 5 to rate. again, this worked globally, not only in the player.

so consider this a bump :)
