This is absolutely key to the usability of the Exaile library for people (like me) with a lot of Various Artists discs, and could be an important factor in getting people (like me) who are jumping ship from Amarok to migrate here. I strongly suggest an intermediate fix before the 0.3.0 release. The fix could be in the form of a plug-in rather than proper integration of this feature.

An alternative work-around would be just to allow for library sorting by any other tag and allow users to determine which tags to use. That way I could group/organize my library by Album Artist -> Artist -> Album -> Tracks but someone else could use a different scheme if desired. I would think this would be easier to develop as a plug-in and also wouldn't affect the ongoing integrated resolution that will hopefully be present in 0.3.0.

Is there a plug-in developer who might be willing and able to develop this now so that we don't need to wait for wishlist items to be addressed in 0.3.0?
