With NGS,many group artists are no longer necessary, and should be replaced with the individual artists if they exist only to represent a short term collaboration (right)? However, the new website has trouble handling this case.
E.g. see this recording http://musicbrainz.org/recording/8a6d34d3-5ddf-4b61-858b-c3f0b3ff2c1b with Linda Ronstadt and Johnny Cash. To "fix" it, I need to edit the recording, and I expand Artist, Add Artist "Linda Ronstadt", Add Artist "Johnny Cash" and finally Delete Artist "Linda Ronstadt and Johnny Cash".
If I follow this sequence, though, the website returns an error when I "Enter Edits":
Artist credit field is required
I've removed one artist credit, but left two others in its place. What's wrong?

Spurious "artist credit field is required" errors with recording edits
Just a follow up. It seems that if you just re-apply the edit, it will "take" (at least, I see it in the edit history; I'll have to wait till it closes to be sure).
