they most likely directly alter the DB from within python - there is no official API to do this.

would be nice if you could add sort methods to all the views/directory listings. That way label2 would be filled in skins and you could see the artist along with the album without your hack by adding it in braces to the album name.

something lke this would have to be added to the "listMenu" function in GoogleMusicNavigation - ofc depending on the path/type of view.

Code:

self.xbmcplugin.addSortMethod(int(sys.argv[1]), self.xbmcplugin.SORT_METHOD_ALBUM, "%A")
self.xbmcplugin.addSortMethod(int(sys.argv[1]), self.xbmcplugin.SORT_METHOD_ARTIST)
self.xbmcplugin.addSortMethod(int(sys.argv[1]), self.xbmcplugin.SORT_METHOD_LABEL)
self.xbmcplugin.addSortMethod(int(sys.argv[1]), self.xbmcplugin.SORT_METHOD_VIDEO_YEAR)
self.xbmcplugin.addSortMethod(int(sys.argv[1]), self.xbmcplugin.SORT_METHOD_TRACKNUM)

I was also talking to sphere at devcon about how it would be possible to get the label2 filled for albums (which are internally folders) and we digged the core code a bit. Seems like it's not that easy with current core featureset, but sphere said that he was able to get album info dialog etc working in his jambmc (or alike) addon in case you would like to have a look.
