I'd love to see this deliver a solution to the problem I posted here (and in the prior closed thread): if I have an album with multiple track artists and a single album artist who doesn't appear on any other album, no amount of option or tag tweaking will get that album artist into the artist list *without* getting the track artists in there as well (I call this the Lee Perry or Larry Levan problem :)).
