Find previous location within album list

Hi

Using the Default UI.
Majority of my usage is selecting an entire album / live show to send to playlist; either library viewer or 'new playlist.
Simple navigation done via the Album list element and Playlist view elements.

When a playlist is very long and you have temporarily lost sight of the now playing entry, a double click on status bar will clarify where one is.

Is there any similar action for a long album list?

As an example, say I am playing the follow show titled as %date% % Album:
1978-12-16 Nashville Municipal Auditorium

As the show plays, there will be times when I will be back in the album list. At any given point in time, the album related to the current playing entry will be out of sight. Maybe the album list outline will be closed.
It would be nice to have a method to find ones place in the album list based on the current playing playlist.
I would get a lot of value from, say double clicking a playlist tab and instead of invoking a edit playlist title, I was sent back to the album list in appropriate location.

thanks

ps. Peter, a positive note of feedback regarding default UI. The current default install has become accessible enough to me to be up and running with a usable player. I can learn the nuances of foobar200 for my needs within my available time and on my terms. Most importantly, I now seem to be in control of your program.   
Previously, I never got to that point.
