I'm not sure it's a good idea.  I think there will be quite a few people who 
don't really know about tags; that will open a tag editor and what they see 
will not be what they see in the SbS.

Most apps/tag editors have an order of precidence for reading tags.  eg. read 
id3v.2 if present, otherwise read id3v1.

Could this also lead to multiple years?  eg. a TDAT tag in id3v2 and a YEAR tag 
in id3v1.

Yes, what tag formats can co-exist, and what order would the precidence be?
