Ellipsis would be cool. (I'd prefer only performer units collapsed by default, since usually they have many members).
Some visual help (font/color) would be nice too.

May I say, managing artist is becoming a bit confusing, now that unlinked artists can be also linked to units. I think the "assigned" and "linked" sections would be easier to understand if they were fused together.

What I do, I first add without brackets, assign, then reedit to add brackets. Or if there are artists linked, I manually link the new ones + reorder a bit (swapping their IDs), then edit to add brackets.

But I believe the composer text box is used only in advanced searchs. So maybe we could relax the bracket syncing a bit? (ie.- not used)



And thanks for the all the hard work, Blah and SS.
