Now THAT would really tick me off ... changing the track order?
Amazing!

I just tried a test where I changed the tags to give the main tracks
and the bonus tracks different album names ("Young Americans" versus
"Young Americans [Bonus Tracks]" ) but did not move any files into
separate folders. This worked well, I now get two different albums
(one for the main tracks, one for the bonus tracks) and no wasted disk
space since I don't duplicate files ... and it is a pretty easy change
to make. I don't feel any great need to keep a single copy of the
album with the bonus tracks included, as I doubt I'll ever want to
listen to the bonus tracks at the same time as the original album (and
even if I did, I could just cue up those songs to play after the main
album).
One interesting bug that I encountered in doing this (and not the first
time I've seen this) ... I had to do a "Clear library and rescan
everything", when I tried "Look for new and changed music" SlimServer
did not pick up the changes.
