In my case I want an actual compilation album be shown as Various Artists and in each individual track I want the app to show me the performing artist (included feat. artist etc. if tagged this way).
I totally agree that a Daft Punk album should not be located under the V for Various Artists.
The CA app seems to ignore "Artist" and only shows "Album Artist" or "Composer" if present. (have to investigate this)
You are right about the fact we all prefer different things so it will be very difficult to achieve an UPnP standard covering all our demands!

Peter.

I think it would be possible to define a clear UPnP standard that enables all these different preferences. The problem is that the current UPnP standard leaves this aspect unspecified, so each product needs to make up its own approach. The result is that some products either don't support some combinations at all or support them in a different way than other products. A clear standard would solve both these problems.
