Right, I do like that, but what I'd really want is a way to convert my
search (or browse) directly into an automatic playlist. By using the
current (at least as I see it in 0.8.8 on debian) automatic playlist
feature, I have to re-enter my search.

Here's what I'd like to be able to do:
1) Fire up rhythmbox
2) Multi-select 'The Magnetic Fields', 'The 6ths', and 'Future Bible Heros'
3) Select a menu entry called 'turn browse into playlist'
4) Have my new automatic playlist appear and let me name it 'Stephin Merrit songs'

That would provide a great deal more feedback for the user when creating
the playlist than requiring the use of the current dialog.

If I'm misunderstanding how it currently works, please correct me.

thanks,
mike
