I've tried that under wmp, media monkey and itunes (not much cause it sucks) but was never able to get anything as satisfying as manual check/tagging.
So I imagine what you ask is for something really simple like tagging the "Album Artist" and "Album" of every song in your input folder and then push a button that would create folders and move files into the correct ones.
If yes you can do that manually: In gMB select all the files from that input folder and then right click -> mass rename, you'll have options to rename files based on tags, and get them sorted in a base folder of your choosing with the tree structure you want (E.g. Genre - AlbumArtist - Album).
You spoke of automatically doing that, I have no idea how that would work. Since the tags are often incorrect or missing (at the very least don't respect your personal tree hierarchy), automatically dispatching these into new unchecked folders would make the same mess in your folders as the programs I used under windows did, you don't want that. E.g. if your new files are from 2 different friends, one that utilizes the "Album Artist" tag while the one that uses itunes probably doesn't. That in itself is prone to poop all over your library, I've been there. So first label correctly to your liking, then mass rename. That should do it fine...
If I completely or partially missed your point, reply. I might check back :D
