I would like to be able to click play at any level of the folders view.

My music library is organized in many ways. One way is in a folder hierarchy. Sometimes I want to listen to a higher-level folder like ‘Christmas Music’ or ‘Jazz’. Neither of which has a clean mapping to genre in music metadata aside from the shared folder. Plexamp on Android currently only lets you navigate into a folder of folders, and not until you get to actual files can you add to the play queue. I would like to be able to add to the play queue from those higher-level folders.

```auto
My Music
|- Christmas Music
|- Grandpa's Jazz <|--- I want to play this folder
   |- Standards and all the music in it.
   |- Wartime
   |- Free
|- Grandpa's Classical
|- General

```
