I just recently joined this list so I'm not familiar with this patch
(and I'm apparently too lazy to look up some archive for this list =).

I don't trust this field at all. It's been way off too many times in my
experience, it'll only work with files using ID3v2 (I'm trying to move
away from this hack of a metadata implementation) and why not let the
software using taglib decide whether or not it should use the TLEN field
when it's available?
