I would like the option to display artist: instrument instead of artist (instrument).

The most obvious and already available option to do that is by means of constructing and using a virtual tag.
So I am not supporting this as a wish, as it would be complicating things for the developer and/or other users.

If you think it can be done in virtual tags, please construct the formula.
Example:
Now
James Hetfield (lead vocals, rhythm guitar)
Kirk Hammett (lead guitar, backing vocals)
Robert Trujillo (bass, backing vocals)
Lars Ulrich (drums)
desired format
James Hetfield: lead vocals, rhythm guitar
Kirk Hammett: lead guitar, backing vocals
Robert Trujillo: bass, backing vocals
Lars Ulrich:  drums

Try this:
Code
$RxReplace(<Artists: Performer>,"(.*?)\s\((.*?)\)","$1: $2")
Favourite tune at the moment:   Dearly Beloved by Yoko Shimomura from the Kingdom Hearts soundtrack
