I'm just trying it out now.  It kind of gives what I want, to be able to 
customise a list of albums to include in libraries, but needing to manually 
create folders where music is located and rescan is a bit of a pain.  It also 
won't work quite right for some people, or will require a lot of tinkering with 
simple-library-views-libraryname in multiple folders (e.g. iTunes by default 
splits compilation albums so music tracks are scattered in a folder per 
artist), or only wanting to include some songs from an album (eg. a bunch of 
songs that belong to "No Album").

I was planning to write a similar library view, but instead configure libraries 
from LMS favourites.  i.e. instead of creating files in folders and rescanning, 
you would add an album as a favourite, and organise music in favourites into 
sub-folders, something like:

Favorites >
        Library Views >
                {Name of library 1} >
                        favorite items within this folder would appear in 
{library 1}
                {Name of library 2} >
                        favorite items within this folder would appear in 
{library 2}

The plugin would only look for music within Favorites > Library Views.

This has the benefit that everything can be done within LMS.  Browse music, add 
music to favorites, edit favorites to move items into a favorite library view. 
It would support any type of favorite (relating to local music), eg. an artist, 
album, genre, song.
