I've been working on a Muine-like music player that combines tracks and
albums automatically: http://toccata.sourceforge.net/

The screenshot shows a search going on; normally the library pane displays
the albums in collapsed form.

It's not ready for general use yet, but if anyone on the Muine team would
like to take the UI idea and run with it, I'd be happy to not have to
develop my own music player to get the UI I want :)

As you can see from the screenshot, my player doesn't have cover art
(yet).
