Well, personally I was thinking that it would take a few seconds and it
would be useful to move a great deal through your different folders with
only one function. Instead of moving two or three directories backwards and
then fowards again 2 or 3 directories, one search could have you there in a
second. Then again, you'd have to type in the name of the artist or
song...so maybe not.

Oh well.
