Spotify's most recent update has ruined a lot of things for a lot of people - you're not alone. I've had repeated conversations with Spotify Support about the various things the update destroys, and they have made it clear they will not escalate any requests in a way that involves letting me (or anyone, presumably) speak with an actaul developer - though they will say they've "forward[ed] your ideas to the dev team" if you complain enough.
Sorry :(
