Hi Sander,

I have contributed a patch a while ago that added an API for removing an 
individual FLAC picture:

https://github.com/taglib/taglib/pull/18

This patch hasn't made it into TagLib's stable branch yet, but I'm 
guessing that it will be included in TagLib 2.0.

Kind regards,

Tim De Baets
