Feature request: Browse by Album Artist for compilations

I have started to populate my Fuze with compilation albums where each track is by a different artist. These various artists make the browse by Artist list huge.

Rockbox has a browse by Album Artist mode where it will browse by the Album Artist tag, or the Artist tag if that is unpopulated in this mode. This single feature alone has made compilation albums a breeze to work with.

Could we get this functionality, even if it is just a toggleable option for Artist browsing?

Album Artist support has been requested many times, but so far no offical response.  Anyway, I’ll add my vote again.

Play by: COMPOSER or ORIGINAL ARTIST would be good, too. For Cover tunes and Classical music lovers. My last player had this (and had MOOD, as well).

PS There is a forum decidated to FEATURE REQUESTS from the main forum…

:wink:
