GMPC, re-instroducing a golden oldy

After having a discussion a while back with Greg, I decided to try to re-implement a golden oldy. Namely the ‘breadcrumb’ bar and artist search in the metdata browser.
The current metadata browser forces you to use the 3 panes on the left to browse through your collection, this is not always the best/easiest way.

So, in very little code, I re-introduced the old bread-crumb bar:

Now:

And a video of the bar and history system in action: mb-grf.ogv

You can test it using the metadata-gregf branch, feedback is welcome.

    Wow, many thanks for readding the ‘breadcrumb’ bar and artist search in the metdata browser!! Just tested it, maybe the bar could be fixed (no scrolling), else works like expected.

    A propper scrolling breadcrumb does not exist in gtk. I do not have time to write my own widget.
