Hi, Chris, winamp 5.094 is still exhibiting the behaviour of throwing
you back in to the main window after adding a song in the playlist
editor, so I think this is a winamp issue, and not a screen reader one
that they need to fix, because I don't think winamp did this in version
5.92, and I'm using window-eyes 5.0.
