Hey, nice job, looks great!  I definitely like the layout of the UI,
it's very usable, the best parts of Net-Rhythmbox, plus more.  I think
that having the sidebar be icons and titles instead of the "Outlook"
like icons is much more usable, as I like to make lots of playlists.

One thing that doesn't work, and I don't know if this is a bug or if it
is meant to do this, but when it started up and I pointed it to my music
collection folder, it only added the files that were in that folder, it
didn't recursively add everything.  I tried adding a couple more folders
after it started up, but that did the same thing. This is functionality
that I definitely think should be in there.
