Suggesting that it should be optional is a reasonable request and if I receive more requests for it then I'll add to the TODO list :-)
It’s the right thing to do 99% of the time, otherwise you’re basically just creating a secondary alphabetical index under “the”. For folder view that might not be desirable as it won’t match the directory structure (I’m not a folder view guy though so that’s just a guess). The right thing to do for the library views (tag & album cover) is probably to use the sort order (or whatever it’s called) tag so people can edit their metadata to do what they want rather than have a blanket on/off switch. Well, if mpd supports that tag, and there wasn’t any real perf impact.
