Description
Every now and then it comes very handy to just play a file in a local folder without importing it into the music library. This is especially the case when one doesn't intend to keep the file forever or wants to listen to it first before deciding whether to keep it or not. Other popular media players (e.g. exaile) offer a special source (or whatever the equivalent to RBSource is called) for just this reason. Here is a tiny python plugin that allows RB to do the same, and I would like to suggest inclusion into the official RB svn tree.
