Basically, the problem is that the Keyboard shortcut is not mentioned in Amarok's \
context menu. This is a usability issue, because the user only finds out about \
[Win-X] after digging trough the "Global Shortcuts" dialoge. I used Amarok for over \
18 months without realizing [win-X] exists, and manually opening amarok for resuming \
play after telephone calls (which happen quite frequently). I thought there is no \
such shortcut, because it does not appear in the context menu. Why should I search \
for a shortcut, when there is none advertised, while other shortcuts are?

Yeah, those are "just two clicks" to restart the playlist ... however, power users \
like shortcuts, as they usually are faster with the keyboard than the mouse.

I see no reason why every single other function should have it's shortcut mentioned, \
but "Play" not. Please add the Play shortcut to amarok's context menu.
