I think what people are really asking for are two browse methods: 1. Directly access folders from the file system displaying the raw filenames for performance. 2. Browse the DB meta data by drilling down in the structure they are stored on the file system rather than by artist/album/genre, and display the chosen info format for music files.
Is the folder path for each music file stored in the database? If so perhaps a new "Browse by Heirarchy" item could be added? Is this possible through a pluggin, like the radio station plugins add browse methods? There are some outstanding enhancement requests for grouping music collections, which might solve some peoples requirements for "Browse by Heirarchy", but perhaps not all. For example, my wife is not very good with technical things. As 95% of the music in the DB is mine, she found BMF a bit easier to cope with, as she could easily find her 5% through BMF -> "Alex's Music". However, she hasn't set up tags on her music, so I think she will struggle a bit again now. Implementing the personal music collection enhancement requests would probably be a good solution for the majority that might find BMF to not do what they want.
