Yes, it didn't used to do that, but then there were complications when
the album had a common name 'MTV', 'Acoustic', as well as 'Best of' and
'Greatest Hits', etc.  You had to define Common Album titles so that it
would know that files in different directories were different
albums...

God only knows what it would do if it was a common title but a VA
release... 

Forcing tracks to be in the same directory makes database normalization
a ton easier and removes a whole stack of corner cases that would
confuse everyone.  (And fixing a corner case for one person's data
structure would break things for someone else...)
