If you sort your library widget by title, it would be nice if identical songs were displayed as one (but they can all be displayed by clicking on some arrow). since duplicate (triplicate etc.) songs disturb you from searching a title while scrolling your library.
The merging should be done based on songfootprint and metadata, while metadata should be weighted higher. I think title+album+artist is pretty unique for a song.

P.S.: this feature is already available in spotify!
