Oh. Yeah, unsure. I mean, I imagine it would make sense for us to create a
catch-all work for these cases? I don't really like the idea of an
arrangement attribute, but mostly because it feels like storing the info at
the wrong level. I'm not particularly in favour of the idea of needing more
than one recording to add a (published) arrangement anyway, but in any case
I feel this belongs at the work level. Of course, I fully admit to being
lazy and not always adding such catch-all works, especially for now since
we don't even have instrumentation on works...
