Feature request: Provide ‘Remove others from play queue’

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Which version of Cantata?
r5627

Which build? KDE, Qt4, Qt5, Windows, Ubuntu, Mac?
Qt5, NixOS

--

Currently we can select some tracks and delete them from the play queue with 
‘Remove from Play Queue’. There doesn't seem to be any way to say ‘Remove 
everything else from play queue’ however. It'd be very useful if we want to 
prune the play queue further after some search. 

I also haven't found a way to negate search queries which would be a workaround 
at least in scenario when we're doing search. Further, it doesn't seem to be 
possible to say ‘Replace current play queue’ which would achieve the same 
thing although in a bit hacky way.

I think "Crop" is what you want...

Ah, yes, that seems to be exactly what I was after.

May I suggest a name change?

Not sure it warrants a change. The playqueue is cropped - hence the menu item 
'Crop'

...I'll have to think about this. Either way, any change would have to wait for 
1.6.0

I think even ‘crop others’ would be a big improvement: when the dialog 
comes up, we have focus on the tracks selected so ‘crop’ at best seems like 
‘delete these tracks’.

I don't mind waiting a bit.

for the record: kcolourpaint uses "Set as Image (Crop)" as menu item text
