screenshot of Elisa playlist with long track titles

SUMMARY
When a track with a title longer than the available width is in the playlist, Elisa shows a horizontal scrollbar for the playlist. However, this horizontal scrollbar doesn't actually let me scroll side to side; it only wastes vertical space. It is not possible to drag a splitter to resize the playlist to show the whole track title. Hovering the cursor over the track does show the full title.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Load a track with a very long title into the playlist

OBSERVED RESULT
A horizontal scrollbar is shown at the bottom of the playlist

EXPECTED RESULT
I'm not sure what the best way to handle this would be. Should the playlist be resizable by the user? Should it automatically resize to accommodate the track title length? Should it just show the part of the track title that fits without a horizontal scrollbar?

Known Qt bug, sadly.
