Imagine a playlist with 500 songs. Amongst those, there are songs that you want to play together, one after the other in one particular order.
This feature would let you join the songs as one entity for the eyes of the shuffler, so that when any of the songs jointed gets to be played, the player plays all jointed songs in order and then continues the shuffle.

To shuffle a playlist manually, the jointed songs should move together as they are dragged.

The dragging together won't happen except by selecting all the tracks together, but playing tracks in groups is already possible. You can either select all the tracks and choose "keep tracks in sequence when shuffling" or when turning on shuffle for auto dj or an auto Playlist, you can choose a particular tag you want to shuffle by, including various tags that you can define. So you could use a tag like work or grouping to keep sets of tracks together

That's surprisingly useful and I didn't know that, it was an option. Thank you very much!
