We intentionally removed this from Amarok 2 (we used to have a queue manager).

Tabbed playlists are not a feature that we are willing to support, for
a myriad of reasons. We simply don't believe that they are necessary
or fit with the Amarok usage styles which we are trying to promote.
Our aim for a playlist is to be simple and intuitive. Your suggestion
would add many levels of complexity that I don't think any of the
developers would find enticing or that would bring enough advantages
to the table to warrant such a massive change.
