OK the basic premise behind the new version (1.5) is that it allows you
to drill down to albums of interest by any arbitrary hierarchy. Let's
take an example which isn't normally supported by most music managers -
the ability to browse classical music by Conductor then by Orchestra.
You define this as the chosen hierarchy as follows: 
14184
Note that currently you have to RIGHT-click on the first level in order
to see a second level, and so on - you can define 6 levels or more if
you wish. The attributes included here include any you have defined in
custom tags.

This opens up a tree in the main browser pane which you can use to
navigate the chosen hierarchy. You can see here that I am browsing the
orchestras under the baton of Riccardo Chailly, and I have focused on
The Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, so I have 5 albums with this
combination as shown on the right:
14185
The number in the bubble of each node in the tree is the number of
albums that match that selection. The tree offers further branches below
the last fixed level for more detailed breakdown by the remaining
attributes:
14186

That's it really, except to say that the mechanism to choose the levels
is going to be improved, and that the chosen hierarchy can be saved as a
bookmark and recalled later.
