Is there a way to add songs to the "List" without using the "+" button?
When I drag a new file it clears the list.

Like drag&drop from the explorer while pressing the Ctrl-key?
You will notice that the mouse cursor then gets a little plus-sign.

As this is more or less like the Windows Explorer behaviour (which adds the selected files to the destination when you use the Ctrl key during drag&drop) I do not see it as a good move to change it.
Anyway: currently there is no option to modify this behaviour.

Sorry, just tested: **That doesn't work for Mp3tag**...
