Summary0022036: Revamp Party Mode
DescriptionParty Mode has a limited amount of Party Mode specific settings, but more control would be helpful, especially when it's used as a Jukebox.

1) In Options there should be 2 tabs of settings.
1a) 1st tab would be the current "General/Standard" settings
1b) 2nd tab would be Party Mode settings

This will allow for finer control over the Party Mode. For example a user may have a Library with TV Shows, Podcasts, Movies, etc., but only want music accessible when in Party Mode. User may even want to limit (a certain Collection) what music is accessible (ex. excluding Christmas). Being able to control which Collection(s) are show, which Collection(s) are included in Search, what field(s) are searchable, what columns are shown independently from "normal" mode would make Party Mode more useful.

2) General node in Party Mode would feature the current Party Mode node general settings.

3) OS Integration, Media Sharing and Downloads/Podcasts probably don't need to be available in Party Mode as they don't need independent settings.

4) Addons should have an extra setting to allow user to enable/disable them in Party Mode (similar to Browser allowing or not to use Extensions in Private Mode).

5) Implement a setting to make FMfS a Search instead of a node navigation, and a setting to set which fields FMfS makes available.

6) Consider a customization of the Context Menu on files.

7) Add Media Tree 3-dot settings to Options > Collections & Views.

8) Add a "Screensaver" with custom timeout to Party Mode. Screensaver should be able to be set to:
8a) Visualization, which would run in full screen
8b) Playing node, which would run in full screen
8c) Just switch to Playing node
Any key would exit 8a and 8b.

9) Add a remote (via QR code) ability (Addon) for users to add files for playback from their mobile device.
