Have you not considered applying tags per track, instead of per album?
e.g. if i have a 'various artists' album, and it has a track by an
artist already in my collection, I choose to make those track
compilation=0, all the others retain compilation=1.
So all the tracks by that artist appear
Interesting approach...I suppose it should work for me as long as there
is at least one track with the TRACKARTIST equal to the ALBUMARTIST. If
I tag that one track with COMPILATION=0 that might just get the desired
effect of putting the ALBUMARTIST in the artist list but not the
TRACKARTISTs.

I think much of the confusion stems from the idea at one time that
'track-only' artists can only be present on compilations. Which, of
course, is not the case. You want them suppressed even when they
appear on non-compilations. The trouble is that the 'group

JJ you make a good point (and I'll vote for that bug). The concept of
compilation is used in a number of ways (e.g. a Best Of by a single
artist is considered by some to be a compilation). In my example, I do
consider the Lee Perry album to be a compilation. However, even if this
