"--" command to skip track?
I wrote (many years ago mind you) a shell script to control mpv via the IPC socket. https://github.com/lwilletts/mpvc

Concatenate commands in keybindings
Perhaps you could have an mpv instance watching a playlist file in the background though. Like I got pretty far by first just launching an mpv instance with mpv --idle=yes --input-ipc-server=/tmp/mpvsocket, and then I could get that instance to play from a playlist stored in /tmp by sending commands to the socket with echo '{ "command": ["loadlist", "/tmp/your_playlist"] }' | socat - /tmp/mpvsocket. This all a bit advanced perhaps, but if you're interested. also take a look at https://github.com/lwilletts/mpvc

How to handle youtube playlists with mpv
I wrote a mpv interface script called mpvc that uses mpv's json ipc interface to open mpv and send it commands. Sounds to me like this could be a potential use case. if you download the videos using youtube-dl ie hotkey'd with qutebrowser first into a directory then use something find $PATH/directory | shuf | mpvc add it'll playback all the files in a random order. mpvc doesn't quite yet support playback from direct url but it's something that's been on my list for quite awhile.

What are some alternatives?
When comparing mpvc and dradio you can also consider the following projects:
mxplayer - A POSIX script that helps you open mxplayer url video (without API) using MPV.
qutebrowser - A keyboard-driven, vim-like browser based on Python and Qt.
deezer-void - I really tried to package this for xbps-src. But... Well, this works: native Deezer Desktop on Void Linux, yay! Based on @siphomateke, @SibrenVasse and on @davidbailey00 scripts.
