portable_audio_player.filepath_format gone?

Hi,

Looking at current spec in CVS it would appear that the
filepath_format has been removed from the portable_audio player
namespace. Could I ask the reasoning behind this?

The reason I ask is that the audio player I have (a Sony Ericsson
W800i Walkman phone) requires that the files are placed in an
Artist/Album/Track folder hierarchy in order for the player navigation
to work correctly. While I realise this is probably quite unusual it
seems necessary for a property like filepath_format in order to
support this in a generic way.

Cheers,
James.
