Visual refresh of context pane

[Danielle Foré]

Harvey and I have been playing around with the visual design of Noise today. So I'm attaching here a mockup of how the context pane could look based on that playing around :)

I'd be interested in a revisit of this. Would this replace the album popup, and how is it related to the playing queue?

I recall I had a local branch that introduced this change. Would the sidebar become exclusive to the Album view?

Here is a screenshot showing my progress so far. Some CSS tweaks related to "album-list-view" will be required by eGTK.

Sorry for bothering,
it seems like victor implementation will remove Noise.App.main_window.info_panel from context panel witch mean no LastFM similar media and plugin cannot add_view to info_panel anymore. I also cannot add_view lyric plugin i make https://blueprints.launchpad.net/noise/+spec/noise-lyrics-display.
Is it Daniel's mockup to put each view into some Gtk.StackSwitcher?

@Victor

The "image scaling" screenshot is gorgeous but the information density on the side bar is very poor: the tracks are squashed in the bottom while the album covert art (while stunning) takes the lion share of the panel.

Would it be possible to keep a balance between tracks and the cover so as the user can view at least 10 tracks and use the panel as a playlist viewer?
