Maybe I am missing something, but I don't understand which grid are you suggesting?

If I open an auto-playlist then I can use views:
List -- previously 'List View' to show standard tracklist
List (by Album) -- previously Album+Tracks to show tracks grouped by albums

And I can also add sub-view 'Playlist grid' to show sub-playlists in the grid.

So which further 'grid' are you referring?

EDIT:
Maybe you are referring adding views like 'Grid (by Album)', 'Grid (by Artist)' which would show playlist content in e grid grouped by artist/album. If yes, then how the playlist order (# column) would be presented?

Yes I was referring to "Grid view (by ????)". in such View Order column can't be show, only on Selecting grid element where Track Names would have prefix playlist order.

I don't think that 'Grid (by Album)' and 'Grid (by Artist)' makes any sense in auto-playlists.

In fact, it would just duplicate functionality of 'Column Browser' sub-view in a less cleaner and more cumbersome way.

But left on Rusty/Jiri to decide.

Agreed. Closing.

Note: once Manage Views.... functionality is completed, users will be able to create whatever views they want.

After review, it was good call not to add as it do not add many benefits and as said manage views covers that case too.
