Mapping A Button To A Playlist

Can I map a remote button to open a playlist? For example, I have a smart playlist called New Episodes which I use for easy access to the latest episodes on my HTPC. I would like to map the recorded tv button on my remote to open the playlist (not play the entire playlist) via the likes of remote.xml so it would be something like this:

<recordedtv>XBMC.ActivateWindow(playlist.NewEpisodes)</recordedtv>

Would this be possible?
