Agreed.  I also think the two strings "List albums by all artists for
that album" and "List albums by band" are pretty confusing, and the
tooltip help is not terribly useful either.  This is a boolean option,
so a single checkbox seems more appropriate.  And "List albums by all
artists for that album" is just not true - if I use *real* ALBUMARTIST
tags and check that box, albums will not be listed by all artists for
the album but will use the album artist.  So the option is really
about treating BAND/TPE2 tags as ALBUMARTIST as the internal name
indicates (despite the bug in implementation).

A new bug should probably be created to track these issues.  On the
other hand maybe better to add this to the existing bug 6490 as
clarifying this may make it easier to DTRT there..
