FLAC Xiphcomments addField doesn't allow duplicates for "standard" fields?

Hi!
Trying to work with the tagpy python bindings, and trying
to add multiple "ARTIST" fields to FLAC files (compilations
also using "ALBUMARTIST").
When I try to use TagLib::Ogg::XiphComment::addField
(through the tagpy.FileRef.xiphComment.addField() binding),
and setting the third argument (the "replace" flag) to
false, everything works OK with user-specified tags,
but not with the basic fields such as ARTIST, ALBUM,
TITLE and DATE. If there is already a value set for
the tag, no replacement happens, but a new field isn't
added either.
Is this on purpose? On a quick scan of the source, I
couldn't find any code to prevent duplicates either
in taglib or in the python binding code.
