I'd love to see a cover art grid view added to banshee. Why? Because
cover art looks pretty, and browsing by covers is a great way of
navigating through and choosing music. For many people (myself
included), it's easier to associate a particular album to the cover art
then just on the name of the album.

Maybe it's possible to copy the code used for f-spot's photo browse mode
to banshee for such a view? F-spot's view is responsive and looks great,
and the zoom slider would also be a nice addition!

Here's a quick mockup of what this could look like. Ignore the
dates under the covers, just pretend these are album titles ;)

Thoughts?

This is an awesome idea, I'd love to see someone hack up a banshee addin that implemented this.
