Sometimes release groups will have more than one title or another title they're commonly known as. Currently the only ways to display this data are to add the extra info in parentheses or abuse the disambiguation field. The latter appears to be becoming widespread in the case of Korean releases, who will have an official title and add a translation for international distribution. (also see yindesu's comment at http://musicbrainz.org/edit/30797466)
The best solution I can think of for this dilemma is to add an alias field for release groups. This way translated or alternate titles can be stored without adding clutter to the release group title.
