I'm sorry I don't really understand the logic, the composer name should usually be part of the album title because it is part of the album title, and there is some sense in always including it when missing it form actual album cover to normalize the data.

When discussing with friends, we always say 'opera by xxx' And what about, as an example, Beethoven symphonies by Karajan ? You have 1951-1955, 19 recordings. And also, if you don't include the performer's name in the title, you will have many albums with the same title.

This is mandatory in the case of a symphony for example, where you need the composer's name, which is then redundant with the composer tag, and your database may not be normalized. For an Opera this would probably be the name of the Opera preceded by the composer e.g Bizet: Carmen, then the AlbumArtist would be the principal performers of the album, generally they would be credited on the front cover and would generally include conductor, soloists, orchestra e.g Georges Prêtre Orchestre du théâtre national de l'opéra de Paris Maria Callas. I would say the album title is the title as it is presented on the front cover/spine.

If so yes your rename masks are completely configurable, you have access to all your metadata and you can use the javascript expression language to manipulate as you see fit.
