Summary0002937: Auto-Sync: Isn't useful for selecting some types of Music (e.g. classical, unsubscribed podcasts)
DescriptionThe Auto-sync panel doesn't allow the user to select tracks based on attributes that are needed for certain types of music (e.g. Composer, Artist, Genre, etc.).

The ideal implementation would be that the Sync list mirrors the node settings that the user has chosen for the Library subnodes of the default filter (perhaps not including Title, Files to Edit, Virtual CD, and Previews).

Alternatively, we could just add the following nodes: Artist, Album Artist, Composer, Year, Genre (note: the reason for including Artist is because classical music is sometimes tagged with Artist=Composer, which makes the Album Artist&Artist node useless for selection purposes).

When we implement this, we'll want to add support for playlist generation based on these other attributes (needed for non-iPod devices).

Resolution of this depends on 0005824, so assigning to Rusty until it's decided.
