Bug Description
Binary package hint: rhythmbox
The manual does not explain what "party mode" is. The status bar help text is not helpful at all; when you hover the cursor over the Party Mode menu entry, it laconically says "Change the status of the party mode". (Is that even English?)
I was scared that it would ruin all my playlists and send my email address to the spammers, but I tried it anyway. It seems to toggle a full-screen view. Then why is it not called "Full Screen"? Does it do something more?

Minimal fix:
* Describe Party Mode in the on-line help
Bonus points:
* Improve the Status bar help text

marking this as bitesize, patches are welcome. And this also needs to be send upstream by someone interested on that, leaving an upstream task open as well.
