I personally have no problems with it starting off on the first view mode upon shutting down and starting up again later, since I so far have coded my WPSes such that the mode I, at least, intend to use most often is the first mode displayed, with the second mode displaying more information when switched to.
That being said, though, I suppose something like that wouldn't be a bad feature, though I would be curious as to how that would be saved, since the way things are set up one can use as many modes as one likes, up to 127 (though how anyone would even manage to make that many, given WPS file size restrictions, total image size restrictions, smallish screen sizes and no doubt layout limitations arising from such... I ended up only *barely* managing to make my WPS small enough to work and still do everything I want it to, and I only used two different modes...)

I also tried this patch and as I expected... it is great! I would have liked to make the theme I'm working on available - using this patch - so other people could see what it's about, but it's not finished yet, I hope I will be able to in a few days.
The main uses I've seen so far for it, are that: - It allows to have very uncluttered views since it's always possible to access more information in subsequent views; - Also, that information can be easier displayed graphically; - It also allows to display very big album art and big graphics in general, because it kind of "virtually multiplies the size of the screen" by adding multiple views.
And this feature would become even more useful when/if other features are added, like being able to display a second album art set, which would allow to display a "full screen" album art, or the back cover, or the next song cover; or if it would be possible to set the song rating using the scroll wheel (volume)... But this is no new-features request ;) I just wanted to point out that this feature is great, and IMHO it also can potentially become even better as new features are added

haha, with the pain this patch is going through there is bassically 0% chance that sort of patch would ever get accepted

see? now that would be a mean patch ;)
karashata:
Decided to mess with this patch a little more and came up with what I think is a really good demonstration of its abilities:
View 1
View 1 (no art)
View 2
View 2 (no art)
View 3
Lots of fun...
