Description
Apple Music's search does its own fuzzy matching and returns results in its own ranking order (does not prioritise the title of a track).
The fix: re-sort the results client-side with a scoring function that respects title > artist > album priority.
Who will benefit from this feature?
Everyone who uses "Play Library Track" command and expects title to be prioritised in the search
Anything else?
