Grid mode has limited fields as it needs to keep the Album files together, Added isn't included as it can split the Album up as files on the Album can be added at different times.
Not a very satisfactory situation.
Many (and probably most?) people would rip the whole album together.
It seems a common requirement to sequence the grid, to be able to focus upon either new or old albums.
Why not workaround by allowing grid album sort by Add Date, where that date is defined as being the date of the album track with the earliest Add date? That would be a meaningful outcome, and would not cause the albums in the grid to become fragmented.
