Sorry, but just no. Senselessly duplicated information is bad practice in any environment and there is absolutely no reason why artist should be ignored. Musicbrainz tags are a fingerprint that will be used to identify something without a doubt. So the artist tag without the corresponding musicbrainz_artist should yield a result that may sometimes be ambigous but is made unique by pairing it with the musicbrainz_artistid fingerprint. Kodi is going its own non-standard road by requiring this information to be duplicated to album artist and its corresponding musicbrainz tag. Best practice is what is recommended at hydrogenaudio.
