I feel your pain. All I can do at this point is say that server is a
music listening application, and yet even though that's all it does, (it
doesn't edit tags, it doesn't rip cds, it simply plays files), it
doesn't have some very basic features for browsing that you would find

Yes, the problem is that SqueezePlay often uses a completely opaque
syntax and only resolves things on the server side which means you can't
build your own CLI queries.
Does querying albums for a certain artist id work if the artist is a
composer? This did not work in the past.

That's a point BJW has brought up several times: the AA browse mode
would basically be today's Artists list less VA and TRACKARTISTS.

I'm not the original poster, but I see this as well -- in both live and
normal search. I don't believe it is new to 7.9 -- I think I've always
had composers showing up in my artist list via search; just chalked it
up to a bug/quirk of the server. (Don't know if the empty on clicking
is new.)
A bit late to the game, and not strictly a LMS request, but with the
Receiver, I've long wondered why a quick press of the button (when

a p.i.t.a to have to find a remote/ipad etc. and do it remotely.
1. If I move mouse over the search button, and mouse pointer then sits
beneath the search strip, after typing one character the live search area
pops up, and one of the result lines receives the mouse focus, so subsequent
