Allow me to give my view of how this might be implemented:
The only important difference between file view and library view is that the file view displays all video files in correct directory structure, while the library view displays only the files that have scraped information. That difference is too small and confusing for new users.

So they have to be merged. Then the following may be needed in addition:

• For each source an extra option should be available like 'add media files to library even if scrape is unsuccessful'.
  
• Ideally, multiple scrapers can be set for each source, with a priority for each scraper; if one fails it tries the next one.
  
• Maybe add an option to choose custom categories besides TV shows and Movies, selectable through filters or buttons. This allows for home videos, or anything else the user doesn't consider a regular movie or TV show
  

Then the functionality of the file view is almost completely encased into the library view. For a real file view we already have the 'file manager' under 'system'. Adding a link from the library ('Open in file manager') is also useful.
