In my view, tagging is somewhat like eye candy.  Listening to classical music, 
I'm more apt to listen to the music versus reading tags.  And, I typically use 
PCM WAV instead of any compressed formats for obvious reasons, for which PCM 
WAV doesn't typically work well (if at all) with tagging.

Seemingly the main benefit of tagging, is for searching for a music title 
conducted by another composer but initially written by somebody else.  (ie.  
Searching for Mozart, Beethoven, ...)  I have never really used grouping, even 
though it would seem like a useful feature.

If I ever get any time, I'll focus my efforts on decluttering so these extra 
features can be merrily easily & quickly implemented within a separate 
function.
