Re: Do you want this? Album Artist - then Album by Year -

I know that this feature has been requested before during the WMP10 beta cycle, but I wanted to bring it back up for discussion.

Is this something that only I want, or is this a feature everyone would like? If so, please respond here.

In the Library, it makes sense to list albums under the Album Artist by year rather than alphabetically. Right now, I go to Library, expand Album Artist, scroll to Ani DiFranco (for instance), and when I expand it, I get a list like this: \Dilate
\Educated Guess
\Evolve
\Knuckle Down
\Little Plastic Castle
\Not a Pretty Girl
Etc.

It makes much more sense from a collector's point of view to organize these first by year and then by title so it would be something like:
\1995 - Not a Pretty Girl
\1996 - Dilate
\1998 - Little Plastic Castle
\2003 - Evolve
\2004 - Educated Guess
\2005 - Knuckle Down

How else can we get this feature request noticed? Any tips?
