Whatever is being proposed, I love the system that I am currently using (so Afterburner is in the Albums -> A container, which is where it should be located), so as long as any changes are optional, I can see no harm in it (though it's not something I'd like to use).

In fact, I actually use something more complex than that as I actually use the Ensemble value (with it set to display as 'Album Artists' on the CP menu, so perhaps any change would not even be noticed by me?

I think it would make sense to use the first tag in sortTags to do alpha-grouping (for all lists that support sortTags). When I do this, the albums are split by album title (so all albums beginning with A for example), but what I would like is for them to be split by artist (i.e. However I have many albums and would like to put the albums in an alpha group for easier access.
