Bug Description
It would be really nice if there could be a calculated "playlist start time" column for playlists that is basically just a cumulative sum of all of the previous songs in the playlist. So 0:00:00 for the first song, <length of first song> for the second song, <total length of first and second song> for the third, etc.
Obviously this isn't always going to be useful, since if you're mixing live most tracks will only be partially played, but it still gives some idea of the time available, and the amount of time that needs to be trimmed at each point in the playlist. Potentially it could include a subtraction of the autoDJ fade time between each song, too..

Actually, I'd like to add my request for this feature. It could be as simple as a mouse-over pop-up tag with the cumulative time from the beginning of the playlist. I would find such an estimate useful when building a playlist, particularly when I need to take into account special events/requests that may occur, such as breaks for announcements, etc. that are to be scheduled. It would be nice to be able to figure out where, approximately in the playlist I might be at that time (e.g., 'two hours into the gig' .) I know that autoDJ settings may skew the result, but this is more for planning an event, rather then the actual execution.
