SUMMARY
Set filter to artist:="" I'd expect to see just tracks with no text in the artist but you appear to get all tracks

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select Edit filter
2. Drag out Artist; Set Equals and leave the value empty; Select OK
3. I'd expect to see just tracks with an empty artist - ones that I wanted to review and possibly fix but it looks like you get everything

I see the same issue with Album Artist

This would be useful, but seems that there's actually a similar report from 11 years ago, so closing this one in favour of the previous.
