Currently the Songbird library is sorted like this:
Artist (A-Z) -> Album (A-Z) -> Disc Number -> Track Number -> Track Name
I proposed that it be changed to:
Artist (A-Z) -> Release Date -> Album (A-Z) -> Disc Number -> Track Number -> Track Name
This would mean that your library is order with albums under artist in release order rather than alphabetical.
With Vorbis Ogg you wouldn't really need the "Album (A-Z)" as you can add the full release date not just the year (Which is currently not supported in Songbird)
I reported this to the Songbird team but they seem to not even want to consider this sort of change. What about in Nightingale will we see this sort of thing? (and support for full release dates for Vorbis Ogg)
