There are subtantial changes to the export of the music library for Leia fixing a number of issue, Krypton changes are of course frozen.
For export of art you need to be aware that it is the possibly compressed artwork that is exported, not the image in its original resolution. Take great care not to overwrite original higher resolution images.
As for the limitations described in the wiki. Export of artist.nfo in v17 and below depends upon each artist have a unique folder that contains their music and only their music. No other aspect of Kodi require that folders layout. Additionally here were some users that reported artist.nfo going unexpected places that was not explained by them having music by that artist in various folders leading to a shared common path with other artists. Sometimes this was when there was only one album by that artist, but I never satisfactorily managed to repeat or understand the issue. Given the redesign that has taken place I stopped pursuing that.
If your only folder layout concern is having artists with one album I would say export and see, but you do need to have all music files for an artist beneath one unique folder that contains no music by any other artists, or your nfo files for those artists will be confused.
