Hi,

I'm wondering if the following is in a way achievable.

1. I have a music library filled with full albums but also some single 
tracks (they don't have a value for the fields "track", "disctotal" & 
"albumartist")
2. I ran the lastgenre plugin to retrieve a correct genre for each one of 
my tracks and saved it in the database (I don't write away immediately)
3. Now when I run "beet write -p" in preview mode I notice that it's going 
to fill a couple of other fields than only the new genre
     a. the field "albumartist" gets overridden with the "artist" (not 
really an issue)
     b. the field "disctotal" gets 0/0 as value
     c. the field "track" also gets 0/0 as value
4. I would want these fields to stay empty as they are the way I imported 
them. I only want the new genre value to be written to the database.

I tried to do a beet modify track="" disctotal="" but that doesn't change 
its value.
I don't want a track number of 0 as I'm going to reupload these tracks to 
google music. And that shows the track number before each song. Don't want 
to have shown 00 before each track without album :)

Thanks!
