Configuration dialog became more clearly arranged by separating channels and feature plugins.  More manual examples on recording configuration added.  Several enhancements to playlist conversion, support for .desktop links, better heuristics, and working url+title extraction.  All MOD files use generic audio/mod+zip MIME type. Use new and distinct /tmp/streamtuner2/ directory for cache+export. Implemented hashing for cached m3u/pls files.  Support 'feeds' stream in Jamendo, more complete Ogg Vorbis support and JAMJSON extraction instead of using old v2 API.  Initial startup and application state restoration became more robust, active category is tracked more dynamically.  Some internal simplifications and code cleanup (logging simplified, more uikit wrappers for Gtk3, removed outdated PIL workaround, cleanup up remnant module descriptions).  Statusbar is just a plain text label, automatically emptied. Disable partial stream refreshing, and threading per --nt flag or config option, because Gtk3 support is still flaky.  Let gtk_idle callbacks run in order through an internal precedence spool.  Browser invocations corrected. Crash in cache search fixed.  PYZ building now supported by xpm and Packfile for custom adaptions.",
