Proposal for jumping to a specific song in the playlist without removing all other tracks before that
Use case: There's a permanent playlist of songs (background music), and only songs from that list are played. Currently, to select a specific song from the playlist, the skip x-y command is necessary, which removes all mentioned songs from the playlist entirely.
Goal: To have a command that changes the current song of the playlist without decimating the playlist.
So like, ;;commandname n to actually move nth song queue to 1st, then play 1st song?
Swap. Ideally don't remove any other songs.

what about current playing song? Skip or swap?

I think it might make sense to be able to 'promote' a song to the top of the queue. If more than 1 song is promoted it could go into a list of songs played ahead of the remaining songs in the list.
This functionality would be similar to what Spotify has with it's "Add to Queue" feature. Queuing a song in Spotify puts it ahead of whatever playlist/album/etc you're on, but resumes that playlist after playing the queued song(s).
@Jackman3005 keeping a list of "promoted" tracks adds too much complexity. Simply moving a track to the top accomplishes the same thing, although the playing track won't be seconded if shuffle is enabled.

I can see how it adds some complexity. I think it could clean up some edge cases though.
e.g. If promoting multiple songs. If the song just moved to the top of the list, then the last promoted would be the first to play, seems more intuitive the other way around.

That sounds much less intuitive than "move a track to the top of the queue and play it".
