I mostly agree with the directon you are taking, but one big item jumped right out at me: are you seriously suggesting (in the section Multiple Artists) that we should create new artist entries called just "Mannion", "Remmert", "Taylor", "Hauptmann" just because they are printed that way on the cover!!!! Three of those four artists are already in MB under their full names. I would be vehemently opposed to this. Artist names should in my view always be standardised (I do not mean in additional title information entries, I mean as actual artist entities in MB)
