Hey Cory,

We plant to make the browsers (currently Track Artist and Album)
configurable, including an option for Album Artist which would, I
believe, solve your problem.  That will be done within Banshee core,
probably, though hopefully extensions will be able to add new
browsers/filters too.

I thought there was a bug open about either the configurable-browsers
or the please-add-album-artist-browser but the closest I'm finding atm
is "add a genre browser" -
