Hi all

This has been posted on the list in December by cyneuron. I too think
that the behavior should be changed such that list in Banshee can be
searched by typing, analog to Nautilus etc. Even though I use keyboard
shortcuts often, they do not make much sense for a music player which
is usually running in the background and I never got used to them.
It's much more important that it integrates with system wide
shortcuts. So I'd suggest to either add a modifier to all shortcut
bindings or at least make it possible to switch between a 'normal and
a 'direct control' mode. I know there are scenarios where 'direct'
bindings make sense, like running Banshee in fullscreen in a
party-scenario. But hands up, who really uses Banshee this way? :)

Thanks

Yves
