It's great that Doug has got a whole site full of AppleScripts, but what a
PITA that iTunes has a contextual menu option that works very quickly but no
way of getting to that feature directly using AS :(

Looping through every playlist is such a waste of time when there is
existing code buried in the app that does the job much more efficiently. And
iTunes exposes nothing for a bit of obj-c hacking either :(

Apple should make iTunes work like Address Book - so that option-clicking a
tune highlights the playlists that contain that tune. And make playlist
membership a property of a track.
