[Nano] Instead entering database, going to files list after turn on

Llorean:
It's not a change in behaviour.

Playlists don't store database queries. "Follow Playlist" should take you back to the file browser, because it's really impossible to know how the song was added to the playlist, and the playlist entry is just a file path. If "Follow Playlist" is off, you end up back at the database screen because that's simply the previous screen.

Chronon:
Prior to a shutdown I end up back in the database if I press Select.  I don't end up in the file browser pointing to the location of the current file.  After a shutdown the follow playlist setting appears to do its thing.  I am set to follow the playlist in both cases.

Llorean:
If you insert more files into the playlist from other queries, does it actually follow all of them properly?

Chronon:
I would expect it to also follow the playlist in this situation. 

After a short test I find that if I press Select from the WPS it goes to the most recent database screen.  I can navigate around within the database or settings and if I return to the WPS then pressing Select will return me to the most recent database screen.  If I navigate to any location with the file browser and return to the WPS, then Select will follow the playlist to the directory containing the currently playing item.

Llorean:
This is more or less what I expected. Basically, it's not really feasible to follow  the playlist within the database (for example, a song may not even meet the same query conditions after you've played it since it may have come from the never-played category) and a song can show up in dozens of places in the database so you can't just attempt to match.
