Re: [Banshee-List] Idea for improving Banshee

[Jonas Urth Olsen <jonas urthnet dk>]

Hey -

I can see the the idea is already coming to life, that is great. However 
a have an idea that change it a bit, so here we go.

I kind of think Banshee have enough album art in different places 
already. If you have “Show Cover Art” enabled you could potential see 
the same album cover tree places (the album browser, next to the player 
progress bar and the “Show Cover Art” widget). With this proposal this 
could turn into four.
How about adding the functionality to the album browser, so it has two 
modes, the first one being the current one. The second one could be this 
proposal, where the albums are stacked, and the sorting is “by artist” 
instead of “by album”.
What is basically suggest is that a “sort by” function is added to the 
album browser, where the album covers are stacked when “sort by artist” 
is selected.

Hope this makes sense, I could make a muck-up if you are interested in that.
