Public bug reported:

With the song collection in the attached archive, I see duplicate artist
art. In the music scope, A-HA and 30 Seconds to Mars are shown twice.

I turns out that this is happening because of tagging errors. There are
both "30 Seconds to Mars" and "30 Secocnds To Mars" tags present, as
well as "A-HA" and "A-Ha".

Brief experimentation with iTunes shows that iTunes is a little bit more
clever than we are here, in that it collapses artists that differ only
in capitalization into a single artist.

Should we be doing the same thing?
