I also usually start to browse and direct myself to a Genre, then I like the system to help me choose.

I have a question regarding this.
Let's say I "want to play some Patricia Barber". So I navigate Genre "Jazz" > Artist "Patricia Barber". Here I find currently 5 containers:
- albuns
- items
- composer
- date
- style
OK, let's say I decide to narrow by composer. I find "Cole Porter" and find 11 items from 2 albuns of Patricia.

What if I now would like to use this Tag of Composer = Cole Porter, and wide open the selection to find all items where Cole Porter is the composer.

This is a nice feature of JRemote.

Do you also feel that this "drill-across" could be useful? Would it be complex to implement?
I see it as something similar to "Complete Album", but widening to all the database instead of only using the Album container.

This would be even more used in Classical; we might be interested to focus a search on a conductor, say "Haitink", drill down to "Bruckner", and from here, drill-across to discover all Bruckner in our library...
