well, if we provide this options, to be homogenous, all views where albums 
view are visible (virtual  or physical album) must show these informations. 
This include :

- album tree view,
- date tree view
- search tree view
- tags filtrer tree view
- tags tree view from left side bar
- tags tree view on Comments & Tags

Some of piece can be set on/off independetly, but not sure.

Warning, to have study this way in the past, i have delayed it because it's 
can be take a while to do, especially to do all regression test.

In fact, i'm not sure if this is the right way to do it for 0.9.1-beta1.

This is depand of free time available for you. Take a care (:=)))

no, because something like this already exist in curent implementation. Look 
on header of Album icons view. You have this information (:=)))

yes
