Not at the moment, but maybe in the future.

This was added for the next build (23).

1) When positioned on the 1st track in the list: Blank the "<<PREV" text and do not show the "hyperlink hand" over the blank thumbnail region. In this special case the previous thumbnail region should behave like any other blank area in the popup, i.e. RMB and LMB display the settings menu.
2) Similarly, for the last track in the list when Repeat is Off: Blank the "NEXT>>" text and do not show the "hyperlink hand" over the blank thumbnail region. In this special case the next thumbnail region should behave like any other blank area in the popup, i.e. RMB and LMB display the settings menu.
3) "NEXT>>" thumbnail should reflect the Repeat selection when Repeat is not Off: For Repeat Current Item show current Thumbnail. For the last track, if Repeat Playing Now is active then show the 1st track thumbnail.
The changes would enhance the skin, giving it a more responsive look and feel for these cases.
Possible text fixes for 1) & 2):
a) Add skinnable options for the text names Name="PrevText" and Name="NextText" which allow specifying custom text (which could be "") to replace default text when 1st track is selected and when the last track is selected with Repeat Off respectively.
b) Or just have an option to blank text in the skin's internal code for special cases.
In general, it would be an improvement to replace the "hyperlink hand" with a normal cursor whenever the mouse hovers over an effectively inactive region. This would include regions whose "activity state" can change dynamically, like the prev and next thumbnails.

Version 30.0.20 (included in today's Public Release 30.0.27) fixes 1) & 2) by removing the hyperlink hand. Thanks.
3) remains an issue when "Repeat Current Item" button is on during playback: The PNP window still indicates the following track, instead of showing the current track will be repeated. I don't know if this is by design. As is it seems misleading to me, though I guess there is an argument for having it either way. Also, in this case, the PNP window does not pop up when the currently playing track completes and then repeats.

I am experimenting with setting the popup display at 10,000,000 seconds and always on. I am testing it as a replacement for the miniviews. Seems to work well.
