Bug Description
The way the queue works is a bit confusing for several reasons.
1) it is populated manually (right click enqueue).
Yet when the user double clicks on a media, the media is played automatically but the queue is not updated: the media coming next to the double clicked media will play (but will not show in the queue)
2) how should play/next/previous buttons work?
Should they play the currently selected track or play the queue playlist
Also, the queue is not persisted: it is lost when the application exits.
The iTunes queue is nice insofar it always shows what will the next track be and let the user re order and remove tracks.
Note: the technical solution must scale for large libraries.

The queue function is overall very confusing.
Above all by double clicking on a song it is added to the queue instead of playing it immediately..
