I don't know what the problem is then, without seeing the code.

Incidentally, I think it's probably a good idea to discuss things here
before attempting major code changes like adding another source.
I am guessing that "RBQueueSource" is supposed to be a "Playlist + user
ordering" or something?  It seems to me that our concept of playlist is
different from what most people expect.  

I think to solve this problem, all we need to do is save the ordering of
the playlist.  We should still allow sorting it by the various columns,
but by default it should use the user-specified order.

Unfortunately implementing this is not exactly easy with the current
code.  I will be thinking about this with the backend rewrite.
