They way I need to have my playlist, I need to have the tracks numbered sequentially, and I found that {context_index} does give them a unique number based on position in a playlist, but it isn't based on the current recording order. It's based on the playlist custom order. I'm trying to downloadn (and number) my playlist in artist order, which i simply do by sorting by artist, but this does not change the {context_index} value for each track.

I know a fix around this is just reordering the custom playlist order, which is (if unchanged), by default equivalent to sorting by most recent. But the problem is that I have 800+ songs across a few different playlists and I don't want to spend hours manually reordering my songs so they get numbered sequentially in the order I set up for them to be played in.

What I wondering is if some sort of {conditional_context_index} variable could be added, to which you can define to be based on custom order, most recent, length, album, alphabetical, or what I desire, artist.
