Advanced Search to Playlist?

[Offerel]

The Advanced Search feature is nice. I get exactly the results i want, with the sorting i want. However, i cant use the search results not as Playlist. Can you please add a feature to create a playlist from a advanced search result list?

This is actually already possible but the method is not quite obvious: You need to drag the title "N results" from the advanced search view and drop it on the navigation pane target "New Playlist". Then give the list a name and click the accept/ok button.

I was originally planning to add a context menu next to the "N results" title and have the "Save playlist" option there, but then I ran out of time and wanted to get the feature released. The idea wasn't abandoned but postponed to undefined future. This ticket can now serve to follow up on that development idea.

Maybe we can close this in favor of #1258 ?

I'd say that let's keep this open. This is a nice, compact and self-standing request, not depending on any of the other things mentioned in #1258. This can probably be solved a lot sooner than the rest of #1258.
