Hallo Sebastian,

you are absolutely right, thank you very much for finding this bug. The 
same problem affected several other formats like Speex and Opus, and in 
the case of the "removeUnsupportedProperties()" function even some more.

I have added a fix in the latest commit, it probably will be included in 
taglib 1.9.
