There's only two options with the Shuffle: play all songs in random order, or play them all in upload order. The only available navigation is one song forward or one song backward. That's it. I figure Apple decided that the device is way too small for a usable display, and that there's no way to offer non-trivial navigation without a display, and so it won't have non-trivial navigation.
