Just thought I would share the results of one of the many fixes that have gone into 1.2
Previously I wanted to see artists such as Phil Collins sorted under C and Roger Waters sorted under W. Because the sorting was a bid odd in 1.1 the only way to do this would have been to set the artist/album artist tag to Collins, Phil which is then what would have shown up in config.
Now the sorting should be consistent I have taken advantage of being able to show one column and sort on another.
In my music collection I have commandeered the composer tag to store my sort value. So for a Phil Collins album I have set the album artist to Phil Collins and the composer to Collins, Phil. In the view definition I have then changed the sort by to use composer instead of artist.
You obviously loose the use of the composer tag this way but if you want your music sorted this way it is now possible
