One thing that concerns me a bit with a work→work remix ar: Remixes are
typically based on a specific recording of a work. How do we represent
this in Musicbrainz? Should we continue to use the recording→recording
AR alongside the work→work AR on any remixes which are based on a
specific recording, but also add e.g. new lyrics?
