Anyone else have any workflow suggestions? I think that maybe using iTunes' workflow as a standard would better-suit existing and new Rekordbox users -- not just because it is familiar, but because it is convenient.

FollowWorkflow features requests
Hello, Pioneer,
I have been using Rekordbox for a bit less than a year now and think that it has dramatically changed the way I DJ and organize my music. I have also converted a few other fellow DJ's into utilizing Rekordbox. It is a great tool.
During my short time of cataloging my music through Rekordbox, I've had a few workflow issues that I think could be implemented in future versions. If these are currently possible, please let me know how, as I do not claim to be a Rekordbox expert.
Copy/Paste Folders and Playlists
It would be awesome to be able to duplicate folders and playlists. If I need to fine-tune an existing playlist, I don't want to be "destructive" with the existing one... I'd like to make a copy of it first, then add/remove tracks to suit the new playlist. Same goes for folders.
Option to Move tracks to playlists, rather than just Copy
Being able to Move a track from one playlist to another (via modifier key like Ctrl or Alt?) would save a couple of steps from the current workflow of drag/drop (copy), then deleting the track.
Highlight next track in the playlist when a track is deleted
When deleting a track, the "highlight marker" which shows the user what is selected, disappears. This makes it difficult for the user to find his/her place in the list. Please have the next track after the one which was deleted become highlighted.
Implement a method to search/replace text in ID3 tags
I personally like to edit the ID3 tags of all of my tracks. One of my pet peeves is the "(Original Mix)" tagged on to many tracks these days. I strip this text manually, but it becomes a real pain to do it by hand. I'm sure other users would like this feature to strip other text from their tracks, too.
Thanks for taking the time to read this. Again, if these features do exist, please let me know how to use them! Also, if I think of anything else, I will post them in this thread.
