As always, thankyou for the development of plexamp, love it.

One thing that has slightly annoyed me about using the 3.2.1 desktop app on macOS is how the spacebar will do one of three things, either

- Nothing
- Restart the queue of tracks
- Play/Pause

I’d love to see the spacebar play/pause content universally throughout the app, as this just seems much more intuitive for a desktop user.

I know this feature may seem pointless, as at the moment the play/pause key does exactly what i’m explaining, but as i said, the spacebar seems much more fluid when using the app.

Cheers
