Summary0010700: Now Playing list can be easily lost and no way to recover it
DescriptionIf the user has assembled a number of tracks for playback, and is continuing to add tracks to the NowPlaying List, it's relatively easy to accidentally delete the playlist (by clicking a track instead of click-holding a track). Moreover, once this occurs, there's no means of recovering the NowPlaying list.

Possible means of dealing with this would be:
a) change the default single-click behavior when tracks already exist in the NP list to 'Play Last'. But this may not be desirable because there are many usecases where the user would expect that clicking the first track in a list would add all the tracks to NP because of the fact that there is no 'Play all' / 'Shuffle all' functionality in the list views.

b) add an 'undo' command that's specific to NP edits--e.g. the toast notification that appears when adding a track to NP would stay for e.g. 5 seconds and contain an 'undo' button.

Option b) seems to make more sense for the MM way of doing things.
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build
