• Dim color of unrated stars. Just to clarify my terms, I believe the proper name of the unrated star glyph is the White Star, and the rated star glyph is known as the Black Star. Please please please dim the color of the unrated star glyphs [ala SimPlaylist]. When every track has some kind of rating, it becomes very difficult to distinguish the ratings (unrated vs rated glyphs) when all the glyphs are the same color. Dimming the color of the unrated star glyphs makes readability of the rated star glyphs much better. Add a toggle option for this in the preferences if it's a potentially controversial change?

• Multiline form field for editing patterns. Preferences > Editing patterns field. Please consider changing this to a multiline field similar to SimPlaylist. SimPlaylist allows for carriage returns/indentation in the titleformating pattern. This is very useful as people who create complex titleformating patterns in foo_tfsandbox or a text editor may use carriage returns/indentation to help with readability. However, as it is now, pasting these patterns into Playlist View is impossible without sanitizing the indentation/carriage returns/commented lines, and of course then the human readability of the pattern is lost forever.
  
  
  
• Add option to sort custom columns. Implement a method in the preferences to quickly sort custom columns. Perhaps via a right click context menu option. Currently we have to reorganize them manually one a time which is laborious for for large sets of custom columns.
• Add a scrollbar to the columns context menu. Currently the custom columns menu will add a white up and down icon respectively to navigate a columns context menu containing overflow items. This is extremely laborious as it requires manually clicking the up or button menu each time, especially to navigate to the "More" entry. This would be much easier by replacing the up/down icons with a context menu scrollbar.
  
• Add custom padding option for columns. Add an option in the preferences where users can specify how much padding (in pixels?) is added between columns and rows. This would help in readability for users that may want a Gmail-esque "comfortable" mode that adds padding between the text strings of cells.
  
• Groups > Pin when scrolling [ala SimPlaylist]. The group header is pinned when scrolling.
• Nested groups [ala Simplaylist]. Add the ability to have more than one group -- nested groups.
• Dim text within brackets or parentheses [ala SimPlaylist]. Add a toggle option for this in the preferences (if this could be a controversial change?)
  
  

• Columns auto-size option
  
  
• Statistics > Rating [stars column]
  This is a feature from the original Facets
• Sorting columns and filters. Implement a way in the preferences to quickly sort filters and columns. Perhaps via a right click context menu option
  

• Type "Roc..."
• Auto-complete to "Rock" by pressing TAB
• Continue typing: "Rock; Meta..."
• Press TAB to auto-complete to "Rock; Metal"  <--- this is currently not possible as nothing is suggested
• Repeat as needed for additional values

Improvement for the track Properties window:

How it is now: When editing tags, you get suggestions based on existing values. For example, you type "Roc...", you get "Rock" auto-suggested based on previous values and you can press TAB to auto-complete the string. Handy.

The problem: When editing multiple values for the same tag, no further suggestions are shown after the first one. You type "Rock; Meta..." but you get nothing suggested. Expected: "Metal".

Improvement: Make the suggestions reset/trigger after every "; ". This way you can do the following:

• Type "Roc..."
• Auto-complete to "Rock" by pressing TAB
• Continue typing: "Rock; Meta..."
• Press TAB to auto-complete to "Rock; Metal"  <--- this is currently not possible as nothing is suggested
• Repeat as needed for additional values

Alternate request (more involved solution/feature request):
Did a quick mockup to illustrate my point. This style of UI tends to be popular with web applications but I think it could work well when editing multivalue fields (genre, style, even artists). It would save a lot of time for me personally.



Assumptions:
- You type "Rock" and press enter, it turns into a blue box: [Rock]
- The blue box can be removed by positioning the cursor in front and pressing backspace once, or by clicking the red X button
- The "Remove all" button removes all the blue boxes and anything typed so far
- When typing into empty space (which is not yet a blue box), a dropdown of suggestions is shown that match the current string (TAB autocompletes the string with the currently highlighted suggestion, UP and DOWN moves the highlight around)
- (Optional) When the cursor is in the empty space with nothing typed, a complete list of suggestions is shown (e.g. list of all genres currently present in the library). Alternatively, this function could have a dedicated button "+" which would show the same list when clicked.
- On save, the blue boxes are converted to multiple values as far as the tagging is concerned. For example, [Rock] [Metal] [New] becomes "Rock; Metal; New"
- This new UI would only be enabled for multivalue tags by default (such as genre) or the user could define their own list of tags where this feature is enabled

This style of UI tends to be popular with web applications but I think it could work well when editing multivalue fields (genre, style, even artists). It would save a lot of time for me personally.

New option:
Playback > Stop after current album

Language Selection

For files that support multiple Languages (like MKA,MKV) there is no way to select the playback language.  Please provide a dropdown selection of ISO 639-2 codes as a playback language preference, or 'first audio track'.  Then also provide indication of language in the status line.  thanks!
