A small but significant step towards better management of classical music would be allowing the grouping of tracks into movements as implemented in some Qobuz albums for example. This would allow for the selection of a full work in playlists or smart mixes

This would also be helpful for non-classical albums, esp. multi-disc albums to add original album title or subtitle.
Examples are Lou Reed - RCA album collection (17cd)), Kate Bush - Aerial: A Sea of Honey/A Sky of Honey), Peter Gabriel - i/o (bright side mix/ dark side mix), Daniel Lanois - Omni Series (steel / purple / santiago), David Sylvian - Weatherbox (5 CDs), all the CDs which split titles of a suite e.g. Egberto Gismonti - Saodações and all the great ECM Boxes of the „Old and new masters“ series.
In few cases Qobuz uses the tag ‚work‘ or ‚subtitle’ to manage this (e.g. Lou Reed - The RCA Album Collection). Unfortunately this it is not supported by innuos sense.
I would also appreciate to have this feature as a field in the assisted rip mode, which I solely use.

A particularly useful feature of Qobuz is that when an album contains several multi-movement works (symphonies, chamber music, etc.) the movements of each work are grouped together. Each work can then be played separately with a single touch. It would be great if there was a way to organize locally stored albums that way.
