This addon provide easy and fast way to switch current playing song without the need of bringing up playlist window, searching for item we want to play and returning to our previous window (Home menu / nowplaying window etc.)
Usage:
Put these into your keyboard.xml keymap (ofcourse that is only example - You can use whatever key/remote button You want)
Now pressing J will bring up simple list filled with playlist items. Simply select one You want and press Select or Play to play it.
Pressing ALT + J will first show keyboard to input filter. (script is searching in song's artist, title and album)

- Play "Serj Tankian - Empty Walls" - write "serj walls"
My TODO list:
- If nothing playing - search for playlists
- Move after current option when pressing Queue button (Q by default)
- Add video playlist support - low priority
- Your suggestions!
