The point is that "Extended Tags" display, or column configurations, etc, will 
only show how Mp3Tag has interpretted the content, not how it is actually 
stored.  It is not absolutely clear what id3 frames are present in the file 
using Mp3Tag.  eg. in the latest version of Mp3Tag, without changing default 
tag mapping configuation, extended tag "ALBUM ARTIST" could be TXXX ALBUM 
ARTIST or TPE2.

Mp3Tag has muddied the waters in newer versions by changing the default 
interpretation of TPE2 (it can be mapped back to previous behaviour).  So if a 
user created an ALBUM ARTIST tag in a previous version, it would have been 
stored as TXXX ALBUM ARTIST.  BAND would have been stored in TPE2.  When loaded 
into a new version of Mp3Tag, it would show both as "ALBUM ARTIST", and saving 
would overwrite TPE2 with the TXXX album artist, losing the original Band tag 
frame (IIRC).
