"Filter playlist" (cmd-F) should be a filter

The "Filter playlist" function (cmd-F) should actually be a filter and not a search.

What I mean is: you should be able to use it as a quick temporarily filter to change the actual playlist to one of your desire.

Imagine you have a quite long playlist with 7 different bands and like 4 different genres in it.
Now you just want the genre "Rock" for example for the next few songs and just type in Rock in the filter bar.
The next song played is the first in the list of the filtered-to-"Rock"-view.

This would be even more awesome if it works with shuffle.
Then you could just make a huge playlist and keep shuffle=all all the time and if you want sth specific (be it genre, artist, song,..) just type it in the filter bar.

(edit: the behavior NOW is: the list gets filtered, but the song played next is not one of the actual view but of the actual playlist)
