It happens pretty often that I'm listening to a certain song and that I want to listen to more of the same artist. This would be a fast way to achieve this.

Maybe an item on the ellipsis ... menu "More by artist" which performs an Advanced search in Folder view.

It could be a popup screen on Playback.
The result of Advanced Search is a list of tracks with a count at the top. Individual tracks are clickable and the total count at top can be clicked to add/play the entire list. There is no Album rollup.

I ended up implementing this in the following way based on some code @swizzle sent me.
Tapping the Artist - Album or Radio station name underneath the cover art in Playback switches to Playbar in Tag or Radio view. In tag view the artist filter is applied. In radio view the list is scrolled to the station.
It's a pretty convenient feature :-)
