This problem seems to have partially come back. Now instead of closing the playlist, Command-W just beeps and does nothing where it should close the video window if that's foreground. The playlist closes if it's foreground with Command-W.
Also, if I do close the Playlist, the separate window doesn't provide a way to open the playlist back up from there nor does selecting Playlist in the menu re-open it. However, selecting Main Window does.
