There are still some occurrences in which MSP doesn't sort properly. I posted about it once already.
There's a problem when the beginning of the title is not an article but indeed a letter or another word.
Say somebody wants to use the title "A Train" (for Take the "A" Train. I've seen it written this way in a fake book), or just the title "A B C" (as the first letters of the alphabet) and best of all "Les" (not the french article, but the first name/abbreviation for Lester).
In all these cases it should be sorted under A or L respectively. It doesn't if the ignoring option is used. Very peculiar is the result for "Les" because MSP doesn't know where to sort it and makes some weird additional entries in the letter bar on the right (remember?).
My suggestion is to allow to add some character that usually isn't use in the titles (like ~ for instance) in the title metadata field like "A~ Train", "A~ B C" and "Les~" as indication that these aren't articles and are to be sorted normally. Of course it shouldn't be displayed in the other windows.
Wouldn't this be a way to sort out this sorting stuff? It could also be used if one wants explicit exceptions from the ignoring for certain titles or something like "A Feliciade" and other stuff.
