That logic would remain. You either have 1) an album artist is
explicitly set in the tagging, 2) the album is determined to be
compilation, with no explicit album artist, and the album artist is set
to the various artist, or 3) all artists on all are the same, and
become(s) the album artist(s). Only number 3 would be new. And it
wouldn't actually be new, except in the underlying data. This is already
who is determined to be the album artist by LMS. By explicitly assigning
the AA role in the database it makes retrieving the album artist list
very easy. It also make retrieving the album artist(s) for individual
albums much simpler than it is now.
