Normally there is also "Get more" (i think introduced in Krypton).
Aaah, now I get it. The "Get more..." button was indeed introduced in Krypton, but it was never placed there. The code for system menus is never done button-by-button, you simply code in a template, and Kodi repeatedly fills out the properties for the buttons it uses. I also checked 3-4 skins, including Estuary, and none of them have the "Get more..." button when browsing the add-ons. It is available in dialogues that select or otherwise manipulate addons - skin selectors, resource selectors, etc. Now, I might be able to add-in such a button, but I'm not really sure how the Get more functions, with, say, multiple repos, or even what code would run it.

Would be nice e.g. for users with a fire tv remote control.
And, maybe as an idea for future releases, it would be great to give some viewtypes the option to show the discart of movies and/or albums with the covers.
You're saying remote users have no way of returning to full-screen?! I wasn't aware of this. There is a shortcut on my keyboard that always returns to full-screen, and also, when I press back, I return to full-screen. I just always presumed that something similar exists on remotes?
Could you check? If nothing works, I will code in a solution. Not sure if there's room enough to add-in another button, how about if you go up from the focused mini-controls, you go to full-screen?
Yes, I was thinking of using more artwork in the future, but I'd have to see how to make it nice-looking, and not too cluttered. For starters, a RightList and LowList views, when I finally find enough time to make them, should feature this and should work for both music and films.
