It was primarily video playback that was causing clipping to happen, and video playback is handled differently now so that it won't clip.
 
I'd really like to see this fixed, because I still have to change the volume every time a new album plays.

I agree; even if clipping were still an issue, there's nothing to say that the boost adaptive volume applies couldn't be calculated slightly differently to compensate.
