Jellyfin supports differentiating between albums where the artist is also an album artists and albums/compilations where the artist simply has a song within an album released by another artist.
This differentiation is very helpful when trying to manage multiple artists per track, as well as dealing with release compilation albums (e.g. Monstercat, or soundtrack albums).

Finamp should support and show this section as well, so that one can still link artists with all the albums they appear on, but without requiring them to be an actual album artist for that album.
This would also be helpful for downloading artist collections, since all direct albums could be fully downloaded, and for albums where they only appear on the metadata and their own tracks would be downloaded, but not the tracks by other artists.

This would be very cool.
I also wish you can add the option to easily add all artist songs (including appears on songs/albums) to next up / queue / playlist etc.
I often search for an artist and I’d like to be able to shuffle all artist songs+appers on songs/albums to queue. Currently I have to tap+hold each search result separately. Perhaps you could add a new search result (Artist + appears on) that we can tap+hold to easily add all those to queue?

Well right now you can add all artist album tracks to the queue, this would probably simply be extended to include the tracks from appears on as well...
Or do you mean something else?

This exactly. An easy way to add everything from an artist, including appears on tracks..
