I would love for an additional Filter in the Music Library of Track Duration. It is a sortable category in the Tracks view, so why not be able to Filter by Time? Being able to exclude tracks under a minute, whether it’s an intro or filler, would be great for auto-playlists… or creating an auto-playlist for only really lengthy tracks… etc… just seems like a too easy thing not to have.
