Like you said, it just takes the first result it finds. There is -e for exact search, which solves some problems, but it's not a full blown solution.

I'm thinking {-s, -l, -a, -p} for {song, album, artist, playlist}.
Unlike the -e solution, it wouldn't make the command significantly more verbose than the default option.
You could also print a list of commands for the specific options (or allow for index based selection) in cases where there were collisions.
That's already mostly in. From the readme:
kew dir <album name> (sometimes it's necessary to specify it's a directory you want)
kew song <song> (or a song)
kew list <playlist> (or a playlist)
The directory can be an artist or an album, so there's still ambiguity there. But kew cannot differentiate between the two. It matches against files or against directories.
Yeah, to fix that you'd need to add support for media metadata, which I imagine is a little further than you'd want to go.
