I would strongly support the idea of adding an option for sorting albums to allow what you regard as 'unnatural' sorting via embedded numbers. I'm surprised that getting Mozart piano concertos, piano sonatas & symphonies, Haydn piano sonatas, string quartets & symphonies, Bach cantatas, Scarlatti sonatas etc etc to display in the correct order is regarded as 'unnatural'.

Did you try doing what I suggested in my earlier post? Based on my iTunes experiment, it appears you have customized the sort order in iTunes, which should mean your files contain ALBUMSORT tags. If you follow the steps that I suggested, you should be able to achieve the same custom sort order with MinimServer.
