Frankly, I'd much rather spend a week or two on adding "something else
than tracks" (basically NGS works without attributes) to the database
and AR support for them, than abusing tracks for this. Having a special
release for non-album tracks is a hack, but having a special release for
hundreds of compositions would be, IMO, much uglier and unmanageable
hack.
