Ignoring "the" and "a" when sorting artists

I would also add '...' to the list as I know one band name that starts with ellipsis :-)

JimZipCode:
Is this relevant?

That patch is quite outdated. In spite of IRC resolution, there is a demand for this feature. Sometimes it is easier to enable single feature rather then cleaning entire collection. Can we reopen this task or shall I create a new task? I have a patch against recent svn that implements skip of 'a' and any dots besides 'the'. It doesn't rely on strncasecmp() and alike, thus filtration should be fast in a single pass. I need to test it a bit though.

"And" :-)

You shouldn't re-open a task for a rejected feature.
