Description
In 0.24, the jump "playmusic" resulted in a location of "playmusic".
MythFrontend Network Control Type 'help' for usage information --------------------------------- # jump playmusic OK # query location playmusic #
However, in 0.25, the same "playmusic" jump no longer returns the same location response.

This makes code for external libraries slightly more complicated. It is also a little less than intuitive for the user typing commands into the network control socket.
The attached patch adds "playlistview" as a synonym to "playmusic" to allow for symmetry between the jump and the resulting location, while not breaking anything or anyone expecting "playmusic" to work.

Synonyms have been created in the past with other jump points (i.e. playbackbox and playbackrecordings), though I do not know the reasoning behind those.

Paul, this looks like a very easy one to close.
