Bug Description
Like many DJs I like to take requests when working. So far I have migrated from a pen-and-paper approach to an electronic one, Alt-Tabbing between Mixxx and Gedit to save requests. It would be really elegant if there were a notepad-style widget within Mixxx itself so that we didn't have to leave the program at all to take notes. I'd envisage this could be a sidebar option alongside Library, Browse, iTunes/Rhythmbox etc. that simply brings up a text-editor widget in the library area. Wouldn't have to be anything fancy, just plain text. Ideally there would be an option to save the notes as a text file, and it would just wipe clean on Mixxx exit.

An alternate idea I've had is to set up a request kiosk PC that accesses your Mixxx DB to show people what songs you have available. They can then double-click the song and it gets automatically added to a special playlist that you only have to remember to check from time to time.
Most of the DB-to-PHP work has already been done by a forum user here: http:// mixxx.org/ forums/ viewtopic. php?f=6& t=1477 so there's not much left to getting it working in the manner I describe. (I plan to set up this exact thing for myself.)
