I'm not sure if I understood Tom's comment as it was intended, but I see a valid point here: In every section 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 there are notes about storing the tags as UTF-8 and subsections about storing the tag in ID3 and Vorbis Comments. Since those rules should apply for all tags it would be good to extract them into a separate Implementation section. This would make it easier to extend it to other tagging formats. Otherwise good work on the specification so far. I've a few points I want to address, but I will comment later when I have more time.
