Summary0003258: Support Grouping field for classical music.
DescriptionA user has suggested that this field would be useful for Classical music fans. In his words:

Will MM3 support a GROUPING tag for classical music? In my opinion for classical music such an additional tag is really necessary to store the name of a multi part work (like "Symphony No. 9"). iTunes uses the GROUPING tag, foobar2000 "CONTENT GROUP" and mp3tag uses "CONTENTGROUP".
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build1070

Raising to Immediate, we should decide or defer it asap.

From my perspective, this isn't critical, but would be nice to have. So if:
-it fits in the form defined in 0003011
-it is understood (i.e. what frames are associated for each tag format ID3: TIT1, VORBIS: ???, etc.)
-it is simple to implement

Then let's include it in 3.0.

Assigning to Petr to:
 a. Add the field to DB.
 b. Add it to track list and support in-place editing.
 c. Add it to Properties dialog.

Btw, re. c - it would possibly make sense to implement as

Grouping _____________________________ Orig Year __________
Composer(s) __________________________________________________
Conductor(s) __________________________________________________

because it would leave more place in Composer field, which could be quite lenghty (some users enter it like Beethoven, Ludvig Van (xxxx-yyyy), etc.)


When it's done, the following is needed:
 1. Add it to COM interface (Jiri).
 2. Tag it in MP3, WMA and OGG (MP3-TIT3, others 'Grouping' field) (Jiri)
 3. Tag it in FLAC, MPC ('Grouping' field in APEv2) (Peke)

This would be great to be added before the next release.
