Duplicate Ignore adding the same item to a playlist multiple times

[ryancey 55]

It is currently possible to add the same item multiple times in a playlist. I can't find a reasonable explanation for that beside a bug (or an unwanted feature ).

When building playlists from a shuffle play or favorites play, I sometimes come across the same song a few days apart and want to add it to a specific playlist. I don't remember if it already is in that playlist, and as there isn't any indication on wether it is or not I end up with multiple occurrences of the same song in the playlist, and need to clean that up regularly.

HI, the upcoming 4.8 release will have a confirmation to avoid adding duplicates.
