Yes, that's exactly what I do, too.

I leave it in "Info: Transient" all the time, and when I want to see the details of a given track, I press and hold the bottom button to toggle it back to Info:Track mode.

Note that in order for this to work, your last two info modes must have been Track and Transient. Sometimes you need to specifically select those two from the main menu to get it working this way.

AvatarTX, does that do what you want it to do?
