Show performer(s) in all track tooltips

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Tooltips for tracks in the play queue contains performer information, tooltips 
for tracks in the artists, albums, etc. lists do not show that info.

That's because these views do not use the performer tag. Hence this info is 
*not* stored in Cantata's cache of the MPD listing.

Performer is visible, and searchable, via the Search tab.

To me this is confusing. When I get a tooltip for a track in different contexts 
I expect them to be the same, not subtly different. I had to check several 
tracks and even look at the files with a tagger to confirm that performer tags 
are indeed there, but are displayed differently in different places.

Easy enough - I can just remove the info from all tooltips :-)

I can see your point, but as I said the info is not there in those places to 
show. I guess I could add the info, and allow searching there - but it might be 
odd that searching for a string matches one that is not shown in the UI...

Adding performer info to each song in the library will bloat its size, hence 
why it is not there. Adding info that is not displayed/searchable seems silly.

OK, I see your point. The existing search is nice as it is.

OK, so can I mark this as invalid?

Yes, go ahead.
