Not that I’ve seen. I proposed a documentation revision, but it didn’t get much attention. Since your post reminded me of it, I just added a [revised proposal](https://community.metabrainz.org/t/proposed-text-for-definition-of-soundtrack-on-release-group-type-documentation/639667/9) based on feedback. Hopefully more opinions will surface.
