Make playing a song from a playlist search queue the entire playlist

[BigDoggeTom]

If you have a playlist and use the search function within the playlist, when you play a song it currently loads the search results into the playlist. I could understand how this may occasionally be useful if you want to play a single artist from a large mixed playlist, but in my opinion, most people are searching for a single song. They then double click/tap and it adds the current search results. I feel this would be better if it played the song but added the rest of the playlist to the queue

I had the same thought a few days ago, but I would prefer it be an option wether to do the one or the other thing, as I either want it to play exactly the items i searched for (for example: all my liked songs off of a specific album), but other times I want to play one song first and then have it keep shuffling my entire playlist. My usual solution to this is: search the song, put it in the queue, shuffle the playlist, skip the first song to play what i queued from the search. It's a hassle but it works :'))
