One thing that is nice with albums, is cover art. I tend to see the page of a digital release that way: it should be sort of special to look at and read. Even if i don't know any digital online store that treat releases this way.
What i want to suggest, is a sperate field allowing to enter custom CSS. This would give the possibilty to the admin user to make a special deisgn for the page displaying an album or a release. Like color, bakground images and fonts etc...
Since the nature of the filtering applied on such field is a vulnerability issue, it should probably only be given to admin and blocked for artists.

I am attempting to implement something along these lines in the next release of Flux.
Otherwise custom CSS could be added conditionally in template.php by a developer to support unique per-release styles.
