What do you want jam on it :) In the old UI the visualiser was actually 
a separate window overlayed on the music screen. When it switched to 
fullscreen all it did was resize the window to be the same size as the 
MythMusic screen so you never actually left the playback screen. In the 
MythUI version the fullscreen visualiser is a separate screen that you 
switch to so you can't just return to the previous screen since it has 
already been closed. I can think of a couple of ways it could be made to 
work but I can see complications which ever way. I shall have to have a 
ponder on this one. I don't want to make things too complicated just to 
add a feature that few people actually use.
