I'd like an option to go track-based or album-based.  Personally, at the
file system level, I dislike it that when I import say "Mark Ronson,
Version One" that I get 10 folders inside ~./Music rather than "Version
One" the album.  (This is true of all multi-artist albums)

How Banshee displays these in the GUI is less important to me.
