What did you do, and what happened instead?

  2. Click on "Go to song radio"
  3. A song will start playing, the queue tab on the right side will open, with the song radio never opened

Spotify behavior

  1. Right click on a song
  2. Click on "Go to song radio"
  3. No songs are played, the song radio is opened, and the queue tab stays closed.

But I found this comment in issue #93:
"Done on main: a song's menu has Go to song radio, which starts the station Spotify seeds from it, playing on this computer. It will be in the next release."

It's mentioned that the "Go to song radio" starts the station.
Thus I'm not sure whether this is an expected behavior or not.
But personally, I think the button should match the spotify behavior.

    See also #93. The reported behavior is inconsistent with the shipped feature: song radio is documented as opening with its queue visible in v0.5.0 release notes, and #93 records the feature as completed #93. This is a playback/navigation defect rather than a request to add the feature.

    Fixed in 0.10.0 (057cbbe): Go to song radio now opens the radio's page without starting playback, as in Spotify's app. Play starts it from there.
