[Feature Request]

Description

Right now, the subfolder feature only works based on the metadata of the songs. If you're downloading an album that's fine, it can create one folder for that album. However, for a playlist, this is not possible. Either it creates a subfolder for each song because the artist/album etc is different for each song, or it just dumps everything in the top level folder. It would be nice if the filter options in the curly brackets support a "playlist" option as well. The program clearly knows when it's handling a playlist vs an album, because it already labels a playlist as such with a purple tag.

Use Case

It would allow to have one subfolder per playlist in the same way you can currently do it for albums. That way you can keep playlists separate from each other, rather than dumping everything in one big folder and you having to manually move them to subfolders.
