Actually Pontscho spent lots of time getting playtree to work but finally
gave up and implemented his own playlist code. Gui doesn't work togetweh
with playlist, at least it was not implemented.

Imho this issue is over 0.90, but if you can come up with a nice patch we
can consider delaying 0.90 more :)

maybe some hack that Gui could 'import' playtree's playlist and then clear
playtree or sth.

another problem is that playtree is tree not a simple list...
