As we move to 2.0 and other platforms, should we rethink our position on
ID3v2.3? I know that we all like TagLib, and every library has its
problems, but I'm wondering if this will end up being even more of a
hindrance in the future. I like being on the high ground and suggesting
that other apps get with the modern times instead of reaching back in
history ourselves, but I'm wondering if we should consider some form of
a 2.3 tagging mechanism. Either through extending TagLib, or having a
simple tagging routine that uses a 2.3 library that we can call to write
all relevant tags in 2.3 format.
Another, possibly much better option would be to suggest or write a
script plugin that performs this function, assuming that our dbus
interface is robust enough to handle it.
What are people's thoughts?
