Well, I don't hear Greenday, so I must guess: Trying to figure out whether there's no pause between tracks (i.e. where one supposes his audio player to use gapless replay to avoid a short "crack" in playback) is rather difficult (at last if I would try to do it from the script). So I guess: No, the plugin will not be able to do this (well, maybe eventually, but not in a nearer future). However, you're right: Recognizing such track sequences and adding them all would heavily improve the resulting playlist.
On the other side, this might also bring some new problems: Especially when you consider concept albums (take "The Whirlwind" from Transatlantic as an example). That album is around 77 minutes and AFAIR there is not a single (!) pause. This would cause the plugin to reserve over an hour of the playlist for one album (when the "worst" case occurs, of course). But the plugin's goal is to create exiting playlists (imagine a party, there, hearing over an hour the same album surely is not what you want).
If you however mean, if the plugin can recognize track "content" (i.e. the lyrics): Yes and no. There are ways e.g. to fetch lyrics (incidentally, Amarok already fetches them and thus the plugin just might reuse them). However, AFAIR recognizing semantic links between two texts is rather difficult. Especially with lyrics. When considering e.g. medical reports this is another thing (these texts tend to use a "standard set" of keywords you can search for). Lyrics, on the other side, often tend to use metaphors and symbols. Recognizing semantic similarity there is IMAO really difficult.
Maybe it would be possible to explicitly mark some tracks as "belonging together" (e.g. via Amarok's custom tagging system). I already use these tags for doing some improved playlist generation. Well, we'll see ;)

Take all of me
The desires that keep burning deep inside
Cast them all away
And help to give me strength to face another day
I am ready
Help me be what I can be
