Consider reducing overzealous display of artist disambiguations

      Artist disambiguations are now shown at more places. This can be good and bad.

      For example, on a release merge disambiguations  will be shown for the recordings but not the releases. It seems unnecessary to show them at all, at least when the artists credits (partially) match:

      Worse example with many disambiguations. It's just 10 tracks but I can't see the whole tracklist on my screen (even in full screen mode I only see up to 5 tracks):

      Showing artist disambiguations on medium edits for changed recordings even though the artists stay the same feels also off:

      Is it necessary to display disambiguations on cover art edits?

      This wasn't ideal before either but now it seems rather ridiculous:

      Were area disambiguations always shown in this context?

      I understand the disambiguations make sense if the artists are different but does it have to be shown twice for each recording?

      Performance name "overview" can get a bit crowded at times:
