How do I create an "Everything" Platform Cat w/auto generated playlists?

Basically the topic subject. I want to be able to just look for a particular genre or play mode or what have you throughout all the games instead of drilling down through Consoles/Handhelds/Platforms. I'm hesitant to just create an "All" platform and try messing around with things, since deleting things from Platform Category seems to be pretty destructive in my experience.

Any suggestions?

I do this with my collection for genre's and series. Just change your filter view to Platform Category, then create a Platform Category called "Genres" (or whatever you want it to be). Set it's parent to be the root. Then add playlists to that category for each genre (or whatever field you are doing it for).

Yeah I've done this with one-off playlists, such as Series just like your example; but with the large amount of genres and the high chance for typos on my end I was wondering if I could auto-generate playlists for every platform. Doesn't look like it so I guess I'll be pulling out my spell check glasses lol.
