Good point. It's not nearly as useful in a playlist buffer.

It's a poor choice because using `RET' on tracks in a
library buffer teaches you that `RET' means enqueue-play.
Since this operation is meaningful and useful on albums as
well as individual tracks, it is natural to expect the same
key to do the same thing to albums.

What other keys do you use?

Another good point. Maybe we should have a context menu?
That would make it easy to do different things to albums.
If we also add a user option for the meaning of `RET', I
think we've covered all bases. I would be happy with having
the current behavior as default.
Is there a standard way to do context menus in Emacs?
What button should they be on, for example? My experience
with other applications says <mouse-3>, but I have never
used the mouse much in Emacs and I wouldn't know.
