The "readcomments" command retrieves metadata for a single file only.
Searching in large collections would be very time consuming.

I agree.

I propose the following new tags for MPD 0.20:

COMPOSERSORT    analogous to (ALBUM|ARTIST|ALBUMARTIST)SORT
TITLESORT       analogous to (ALBUM|ARTIST|ALBUMARTIST)SORT
LABEL           electronic [dance] music
REMIXER         electronic [dance] music
CONDUCTOR       classical music
LYRICIST        audiobooks and classical music
LANGUAGE        audiobooks
ISRC            identifier

PERFORMER       drop or keep for compatibility

MOOD, RATING    Is this stuff really neccessary?


Your comments please.


Best regards,
jr.
