Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Rigellute/spotify-tui/issues/221

When I'm inside the "Playlist" pane and scrolling through the playlists, but want to switch to the "Library" pane I have to switch to the pane on the right (welcome or the current playlist) and than back to the left side. Because pressing q inside the playlist pane would close the application.

I think not closing the application but switching to the pane selection mode would be a more intuitive behavior.

To switch panes you should be able to use Escape to enter "hover mode" which then lets you navigate around to select again.

q is meant to be the equivalent of the back button.

Hope that makes sense?
