Can some playlists shuffle by default and others not?

Question

I have some playlists that I ALWAYS want to shuffle, like my “everything except jazz and classical” or maybe my “rock only” playlists. And now that I think about it I pretty much want almost all my playlists to shuffle. BUT, I nearly always want albums to play in order.
So here’s my problem:
I set my 80gig iPod to “shuffle/songs” and listen to my “everything except jazz and classical” playlist and everything is fine. Then, I hear a song that makes me want to hear the whole album (in order) so I need to go to settings and select “shuffle/off.” Then when I get done with that album or I’m ready to move on and I want to shuffle one of my playlists I need to go back to settings and change shuffle again to songs.
Possible Solution:
Since I nearly ALWAYS want certain playlists to play random (shuffle) and albums to always play in order isn’t there away (and there should be) to make certain playlist default to shuffle? I would think you should be able to right-click on a playlist and select “default shuffle for iPod” or something like that.
Anyone have a solution, because I’m really getting sick of turning shuffle on and off for the same thing over and over?
Thanks,
Eric
