Description Rob Oxspring 2007-01-16 22:09:37 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
When correcting the album artist, ALL of the tracks' artist fields are overwritten with the album's.  This is particularly annoying when musicbrainz supplies some complicated track artist information but with the wrong album artist information.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Enter album artist
2. Enter different track artists
3. Change album artist



Actual results:
All the information entered in step 2 is lost

Expected results:
All the information entered in step 2 is retained

Does this happen every time?
Yup

Other information:
The track artist fields should be set to match the album artist ONLY if ALL the track artist fields are currently set to what the album artist field WAS set to before the edit.
