Nope.  Expected behavior is six albums, no matter what server options
are set at.

Why not?  What if the only recording of 'Crocodile Rock' is on a
compilation called 'Super Hits of the 70s'?  Wouldn't you expect to be
able to find that song under Elton John?  I certainly would.

The problem is that the compilation option for grouping albums is
misworded (or misleading).  It has more to do with which artists show
up in your artist list and nothing to do with which albums show up for
each artist.  When "Group compilation albums together" is selected, it
just means that artists who have only tracks on compilation albums will
not be shown in the artist list.
