There are a lot of examples like this when tagging gets more advanced, one is that some tagging software I've tried have had a tendency to remove multiple genres and only write back one genre to the music file.
Based on this, I think it would be ok to implement a solution that allows editing of database content, like SMD project was intended to work, but I doubt we are going to focus on writing anything to the actual music files in the near future, the risk of trouble is just too large and it requires extensive quality assurance. However, if there is some third party developer reading this who would like to to experiment with it and give us some help to create the necessary communication protocols to support it, please let us know.
