I feel this would be much better as it prevents groups of tracks from being cut short and added to the next column.

This is how it's displayed in iTunes. Each subgroup (Disc#) is displayed across both columns:

It's not too big of a deal for albums with less tracks. However with audiobooks and albums containing many tracks, it's not ideal to have them divided this way.

I've seen in the past an orphaned disk title at the bottom of the 1st column.
MusicBee 3.5.8516 / Windows 10 (64-bit) / Intel i5-3470 / 8GB RAM
Media on NAS (CIFS share)
20K+ tracks, predominantly FLAC ; converted to mp3 (lame -V 0) when synced to a Cowon D2+
