I honestly can't get over how much I love this addition to LMS.

I liked the idea so much, I had to implement it. I would often start the day with random play picking some random album. But then I wouldn't like the first one, go back, re-start a mix, repeat. The new random album browse mode is much simpler to achieve this. Thank you for the suggestion :-).

At first it looked like a really easy implementation (sort by rand() instead of whatever else). Unfortunately this was causing problems in the web UI where when drilling down the list was re-evaluated, resulting in a different random resultset... That's the reason why you can't drill down the albums list as you do with other browse modes. I'm glad nobody complained so far :-). But as this mode is mostly for album listeners, drilling down to the track level probably isn't as important as in other use cases.
