Import and Export custom playlists so that if the server machine crashes or is upgraded you don't have to recreate all the conditions/filters.

As a wishlist item, I was asking for something a little more elegant and transportable... if possible.

Ah, sorry, I didn't realize that. The problem with backing up only the playlists is of course that without files they will be empty. Active playlists are created dynamically, so they need files. Smart and normal playlists can be empty. I guess you are talking about exporting smart playlists mostly, right?

Yes - smart lists specifically.

I'll add to the development to-do list a function to import/export smart playlists. Thanks for the suggestion!
