Playlist description and alternate names

7 votes

It would be nice if there was a "description" field in playlist details, to give some info about the playlist (e.g. for a jazz playlist, description could be "Selections from Mingus, Miles Davis, Coltrane and other jazz greats").
In addition, alternate playlist names would be useful, notably for localization. For example, a "jazz greats" playlist could have "alternate_name_fr" set as "légendes du jazz" for display on the french version of a website. Similarly, alternate versions of the "description" field for localization would be neat.
Those fields would ideally be exposed both in the Playlists API and Now Playing static JSON (much easier to manipulate since it doesn't require an API key).

An example use case: I display the current playlist's name on my home page, retrieved from the static JSON file, with this feature I could also display some info about it, and have localized versions for the french version of my website.

Thanks for considering it!
