If it still works as described in comments there, then I object. It
says "As a side effect it will also resume if you restart the player and
have it set to resume which you would probably want to fix." - does it
still do that? I would find that very annoying - when the player has
just started (and is already thrashing the disk to populate the dircache
and load the db to ram) the last thing I want it to do is go off and
start buffering something I've already listened to; it will take much
longer to pick something new to listen to instead.

I have no objection to it being possible to *manually* resume a playlist
that already finished, but it should only do it if you hit play or pick
Resume Playback explicitly.
