Could use a shortcut for soloing the track while in a playlist lane

I added b1daly's idea, with a small tweak: I still think shift-S would be useful for soloing/un-soloing a playlist lane, so you can compare the take to the main playlist clip.

Apparently, someone flagged my post after I added b1daly's suggestion because that part had been requested before. So I had to remove it. Sorry, b1.

So ladies & gentlemen, please go vote on BOTH ideas:

Really surprised the 2nd one didn't get more traction originally. Seems like such an obvious idea, I know I've seen it mentioned before, and it would tremendously speed up workflow.

If this was the case, shift S could be bound to solo just the track as OP is looking for.

Anyone else wish for this?

Another +1 on this. Such a necessary thing for comping

Bump and +1

I was just going thru playlists and realized how sad it is that we don't have this yet. Even worse, soloing a playlist with the mouse predictably and correctly leaves the track solo'd, while soloing a playlist with shift-S inexplicably unsolos the track.

I'm also disappointed--correct me if I'm wrong--that there's no shortcut for cycling thru playlists. You have to make a selection first, and then cycle. That's cool and useful, but it'd be nice to skip the selection part in some cases.
