In my user opinion, Amarok doesn't currently embed "useless" or "out of the
pool" features. But I must admit I probably don't know everything.

Could you please let us know what are these features you consider to be
overweight?
It could be interesting to know it for next moves.

What I find more important though: Watching out that we don&#39;t add even<br>

to remove them, due to user outrage (we&#39;ve had that happen many<br>
