I'd say that in most cases when I navigate into a track artists I'm
going to want to find music by that artist and in most cases I
primarily want to find other normal albums by this artist (where the
artist is set to album artist).
In my library, this is also how it currently seems to work, clicking on
a track artist in the web interface shows all albums by that artist,
both compilations and normal albums. I'm not sure if I've changed some
setting to make it work this way but it does behave like this.
However, I would prefer them to be sorted by relevance, so the albums
where the artist were album artist comes first followed by the albums
where the artist only is featured on one or a few tracks.

I don't think this will be a problem, the number of extra rows should
be fairly few compared to to total number of rows in the tables in
question (contributor_track and contributor_album).
