It's duplication of data that's not (IMO) really needed. I think performers in recording ACs is important, so we can browse performances from works, now it's broken: http://musicbrainz.org/recording/00bc2f83-64e2-40db-b700-a9a52f9fd108 Having composers in that list would mostly clutter up the view, if they're not really useful for anything. For track artists, I think I'd personally favor composer only. It's the easiest to enter (second only to not entering anything at all), it looks clean in the tracklist & works for tagging. For showing performer credits in the UI, ARs work much better, so I don't know if it helps anyone to have both composer & performers there? > >> 1) Even if Picard had this option, it's not a one-time either-or > >> choice for me.
