cue and m3u parsers can now skip utf8 BOM
automatically fill new/edited column title from the selected column type
removed the frame widget around playlist to make scroll bar more accessible in maximized windows

fixed Enter and Esc keys in track properties
fixed playlist column auto-resizing in maximized window

fixed local album cover files search order, it's alphabetical now
alsa: added a hack/work-around to prevent releasing sound device when a user switches between tracks
