I don't understand your scheme. Why aren't 2 separate tags always better than one - showing both and indexed by both? My OCD brain completely disagrees with yours about using just one from Album Artist lists, but then I guess you would expect that :)
However, since I almost never use standard or material skin menus, but use Custom Browse menus 95% of the time, I've never really noticed what's in those lists. And since AlbumArtists aren't in the queue and now playing lists (I never knew because they are always track artists as well in my scheme) comments in my previous post about that element can be ignored.
