Version: (using KDE 4.4.1) The collection pane allows to select among a small number of ordering schemes ("Artist / Album", "Genre / Artist", etc.). This approach is rather limited. An alternative approach would allow custom expressions to be used instead. Example: I have mostly Jazz and classical music in my collection. For Jazz, I want to sort by artist. For classical, I want to list by composer. To be most flexible, a pluggable predicate function may be used that would have access to an individual CD's entire set of tags, so arbitrary sorting and grouping can be scripted.
