Summary0012667: No simple means of playing multiple Albums by an Artist
DescriptionIf a user wants to play whole albums by an album artist, the user must go through a rather complicated set of steps:
1 Click the Album Artist
2 Select-hold each of the Albums
3 Press play

This is because selecting an Artist and pressing Play causes tracks to play in alphabetical order (which matches the order in which the tracks appear in the Tracks tab).

Users often find this confusing.

We can either:
a) fix this by modifying the sort order of Tracks in the Artist / Artist & Album Artist / Album Artist views
b) fix this by leaving the sort order of Tracks as is (alphabetical), but changing the sort order when the user selects-holds Artists and presses play.
c) don't do anything, and always play tracks according to the sort order in the Tracks tab which will be configurable (per view) in 1.2
TagsNo tags attached.
