yes, I think foobar2000 does something similar.  vorbis comments
are really not for that but I do understand why people do it like
that.  when I originally did the CUESHEET block type and left out
tags, my plan was to add a CDTEXT type that actually emulated the
real CD-TEXT subcode data.  when I started reading up on it, it
looked way to complicated, with images, etc. and I never got around
to it.  I still think the right way is some CDTEXT subset that
is separate from the CUESHEET block (which I thought should be just
for the CD TOC and index points).  but the cuesheet= tag may grow
because it solves the immediate need.
