I have the same problem, but with a music collection that is actually
quite well-tagged. For a lot of (pop) music the actual album something
came from is irrelevant and undesirable to have tagged, because it
clutters up the album view of (other) music players. When I am browsing
albums, I expect to see only albums I own in their entirety, not
'albums' that contain only that one-off hit and miss all other tracks.

The problem here is that any song that lacks the album tag, gets shown
in the album view as a unique artist/album combination. Right now I have
a thousand or so stand-alone tracks (starting with 10cc – Unknown Album
and ending with ZZ Top – Unknown Album) to swipe-scroll through before I
get to the real albums.

This takes about two minutes, and has to be done every time you open the
music app. Rather unworkable.

I would suggest grouping all tracks that lack an album tag into a single
'Unknown Album' pseudo-album, regardless of artist.
