Toggle to ignore "The" in sorting

Many song and artist names start with "The", but the word(s) that come after are really the defining part, and usually these are what people remember them by. This is also why many places, Spotify being one, ignore them in sorting. But it is still based on preference. So it'd be useful to have a setting, set by the streamer, that decides if their song list ignores a "The" prefix in song and artist names for sorting purposes. An expanded version could be to allow a set of prefixes to be ignored, e.g. so "The, A, An" could define prefixes to ignore when sorting.

This would be soooo useful for me. Currently I have so many songs listed like ‘Beatles, The’ and ‘Hanging Tree, The’ and it looks quite messy on an overlay.
