The Stream Playlist thing is SO DYSFUNCTIONAL.
CRITICAL MISSING FEATURES:

This reinforces my overall impression of Stream on Sharepoint: Half baked, half hearted, barely useable.
...and yes I am still furious about the "migration tool."

It also shows the owner and it is hard to get other fields on the card without advanced JSON formatting.
