Would like to have an option for just a separator (non grouping) that would display only in the cast (not sure about crew). 

This separator could be for things like "Additional cast", "In Alphabetic order", "In Appearance order", "Introducing" or any other tag that may appear in the DVD credits that don't need to transfer over to and actors individual listing.

I have nothing against this if it remains local. If it is contributable, it is one thing more to delete when downloading a profile, so I'm not in favor of it.

There is already too much clutter in the credits.  The last thing i want is another divider i must remove if i want updates of some value.
Bad movie?  You're soaking in it!

I am not trying to replicate the exact looks of the credits.  I am interested in who was in the film and what role they played.  I would not support dividers for this stuff.

I already use dividers for this kind of thing, but don't think it belongs in the main db.
No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.

We will teach it to them again.
Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.

This is purely a data visualization question. If implemented, it should be in the UI without any modification to the data. Making it optional would stop a lot of the discussion, but personally I couldn't care less, I use DVD Profiler to edit my data, not to view it.

My guess is that it would be faily trivial making a plugin maintaining the divider locally if someone feels like it - then no change is needed at all (just be careful not to contribute it).

I could go with a non contributable option, if somehow it could be maintained.

The only reason I brought this up, The current dividers have implications in the rest of the program.

People ask eveeryonce in a while about "Gaps" or other tags in teh DVD credits listing that really have no bearing on the cast list itself.

If something could be designed for local use, that wouyld not have implications in the rest of the program, I think that would be fair, and end som problems.
