Summary0000914: Find More from Same: should work even when multiple tracks are selected
DescriptionWhen the user has several tracks in the tracklist, it should be possible to initiate a quicksearch that finds _all_ tracks that match any of the searched tracks attributes.

e.g.
Genre Node - Pop
-Beatles - I want to hold your hand
-Michael Jackson - Thriller

If the user selects these two tracks, and clicks 'Find More from Same Artist' then the user should be returned to the Search node with the search results for Artist=Beatles or Artist=Michael Jackson.

OR Similarly if the user selects these two tracks, and clicks 'Find More from Same Title' (note--this option does not yet exist--we'll want to add it) then the user should be returned to the Search node with the search results for Title=I Want to hold your hand or Title=Thriller.

Note: Bug 0000914 --ability to Quicksearch on tracks not contained within the library -- should be solved prior to this.
TagsNo tags attached.

Generally it's possible, but it's a major change in how it works now - currently it jumps to a node that contains requested information. This feature would require to show search results instead.

Yes I realize that--though I'd suggest that when the user tries 'Find More from same X' for a single track, the implementation should continue working as it does now. It only needs to go to the Search node when multiple tracks are used.

From a user standpoint, I don't think that this makes much of a difference, except for the fact that the Previous/Next buttons work for node navigation, but not yet for search results (see bug #95).
