Wasn't referring to your post Gary but going back to the original

The suggestion was that Fleetwood Mac/Fleetwood Mac x2 in different
folders would get amalgamated on a clear rescan but would appear
correctly if one was subsequently added via a scan for new files.

Seriously. I don't think you can really call it a bug.
When you do a clear and rescan all folders are treated equally with the

On a point of order. The album got renamed as PG's FM at some point to

Are you hitting a maximum tag size that all of the above are exceeding?
Try a single string of 30 characters and then keep incrementing to see
if it's that.

What do people think is the best way of dealing with hidden tracks
i.e.those that appear at the end of an album after X mins of silence?
Assume that we are trying to end up with a lossless format track(s) with
no silence.
I read somewhere that editing a FLAC with Audacity isn't advisable but
I think you can do 5 albums before you need a licence.

An audio CD created from individual FLACS should be identical to the CD

The long winded way will still be accurate. Each track can be checked

My genre tags are rubbish. I spend hours checking the rest but little or
no time on genres.
You can do quite a bit with "Actions" in mp3tag but there would be quite
a bit of work setting it all up and as you say you would have to start
at the bottom of the nest
An action
Thinking further I would extend the Genre tag to include the origin e.g.
