This is actually The Main Thing that bugs me about Rhythmbox.

The way I arrange my CDs or records, I split them up into two sections.
One for single-artist albums (we'll call this Group A) and one for
compilations (Group B).  Within Group A, I alphabetize by album artist,
then sort from oldest to newest within that.  For Group B, I alphabetize
by album name.

Rhythmbox is a great player, but it's very difficult to organize/access
my music in any sort of satisfying way given the way it blends
everything together.  If I want to find a Group B album, I shouldn't
have to sort through all of the mixed-in Group A album titles.
Especially when I have a lot more single-artist albums than
compilations.  And when I'm looking for a Group A album, I shouldn't
have to wade through a bunch of artists I don't really care about, but
who only show up in the list because of one track on a compilation.

I think fixing this organization scheme would save a lot of people a lot
of time and brain cells.  It's also connected to an issue I have with
Rhythmbox iPod management for which I'm about to open another bug.
