I've now more or less finished the CD importing feature, the patch is
in #648. I'm sure it requires some testing still, but it's
functionally complete.

Meanwhile I'm finally starting work on a very wanted feature: a better
tag editor. I've always liked the interface for Quod Libet, so I would
like to have that as a main inspiration. I would ask everyone to have
a look at Quod Libet, see what you like and don't like, what's missing
or superfluous and then let me know, so I'll plan and design it
correctly from the start.

Personally I think the "Tags from filename" feature is unneeded and
probably not very accurate, so I'd like to skip that. Instead I'd like
to add another tab, called something like "Convert encoding". This
would be a way for the user to tell exaile exactly what kind of
encoding the tags are in. So if your tags are in Finnish and you get
??? instead of special characters, you can tell exaile what encoding
they are in. Also, there could be a button to convert these tags into
Unicode once you've sorted out the encoding, so they'll always display
correctly.
