Add loop option to slideshow

The feature

I'd like to have the option to loop a slideshow. Sometimes I like to just have a slideshow going on one of my monitors, but having to restart it is annoying. I'm thinking a toggle switch in these options that just says "Loop Slideshow"

Seems like it would be an easy feature to add?

UPDATE: After testing, it appears he slideshow DOES loop by default. Since that satisfies what I was looking for, I no longer have any complaint, but I do think the feature request is still valid. There may be others that would prefer to have this control?

We also want the loop option, but for us, it exist at the end of the album.
You say "loops by default", but that hasn't been our experience unless "shuffle" is selected for the order.

[orrinwitt]

That's a good point. I likely had the shuffle option on, and didn't realize that was influencing the loop behavior.

This feature also looks like it was talked about when the settings options were being discussed, but was never implemented/ acted upon.
