I believe it is a known difference in 7.6.  One that I am in support of - an 
artist is an artist, and should display everything relating to that artist, 
irrespective of contribution (type of artist you navigated from).

I have seen other users report that they don't like it in 7.6, eg. click a 
composer name, and it shows all albums by that composer, not just others that 
they have composed.

This seems to be the favoured approach that people from both camps generally 
agree is okay.  I think its the best way forward and logical.  It's like 
searching google for something; the most likely results are at the top, with 
other possibilities further down the list.
