Behavior of Artist tag

RE: Behavior of Artist tag
I've just installed 0.51, and it seems to be working well so far. I very much appreciate it that MinimWatch tells me which server it's watching. Excellent Smile

I'm still struggling with the Artist tag in my classical collection, though. How do I configure MinimServer to give me a listing of just the values in the Artist tags, without anything mixed in?

From one of the posts above I concluded that I needed to remove "Artist" from the "indexTags" property, but that (probably not very surprisingly) just removed the entire Artist list Sad

I think I understand the logic behind the "mixing in" of other tags, but it results in the weirdest values in the Artist list, such as
"Ton Koopman",
"Ton Koopman, Ton Koopman",
"Ton Koopman, Ton Koopman, Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra",
"Ton Koopman, Tini Mathot"
and so on...

I could of course remove the Artist tag from the indexTags, create a new usertag "Performer", copy all my Artist tags to the Performer tag, but that doesn't seem like the most elegant solution. So far MinimServer shines when it comes to elegant solutions, so I guess there must be a better way?

Also, I noticed that "Tini Mathot" does not appear in the Artist list. Any idea why that'd be the case?
The tracks in question were tagged "Ton Koopman\\Tini Mathot" in MP3tag. According to metaflac this works as expected, embedding 2 Artist tags in the file:
Artist=Ton Koopman
Artist=Tini Mathot
