[iTunes] iTunes 9 falls short

There was an essential feature that was included in iTunes 7 that was missing in 8 and surprisingly, still woefully missing in 9. 

It's simply this: In Preferences/Advanced/Importing one had the option in Tunes 7 of importing CDs with or without track numbers. Tunes 8 and 9 eliminates this option and shoves track numbers in your face whether ya want 'em or not. This means that when storing songs externally, they're not listed by name alphabetically, but by their original track numbers associated with the CDs they came from. Stewwww pid.... This forced you to organize your library by having all track 01 songs clumped together from different albums, then all track 02 songs, etc. etc. 

This is not only awkward but just plain annoying. And dumb.  

iTunes 9 badly needs an update: users need to opt out of the dictatorship of storing by track numbers.
