      When I'm updating a compilation's track titles or credits to follow the style guide (usually due to incorrect capitalization or missing join phrases), I'll sometimes find that one or two of the original recording titles/credits should be preserved (because the song appeared somewhere else earlier with a legitimate difference that should be preserved), while all the rest of them need to be updated to match the track titles.

      Clicking the "Update the recording title to match the track title." checkbox for each of these tracks is tedious, and it's easy to miss one. It would be nice if I could click "Copy all track titles to associated recordings." to check all of the checkboxes and then just uncheck the ones that I don't want, but currently the per-track checkboxes are disabled while "Copy all" is checked.

      I think it'd be easy to improve this by not disabling the per-track checkboxes when "Copy all" is checked, and automatically unchecking "Copy all" if the user unchecks one or more of the per-track checkboxes.
