"The" mangling, take 2

[Eldad Zack]

I'm all for no mangling, but if you insist, I'd rather have it influnence just 
the sorting, but please don't drop the "The".
Though I do apply my own patch each release to keep myself happy (very easy 
with gentoo), and beside that, amarok is just perfect for me.

So on the whole I'm very very happy with it... :)
