Right now in version 2.1.7 (Debian Testing) the tags available fro
EasyTag to edit, are Title, Artist, Album Artist, Album, CD, Year,
Track, Gerne, Comment, Composer, Orig. Artist, Copyright, URL, Encoded by.

Anyway, as known ID3v2 tags suport much more tags, like Lyricist,
Language, Orig. Performer, Soloist, Publisher and many many others.

There is a bug open about adding support for more tag fields:

I have not had much time to look at it yet.

Is it difficult to integrate full support to all these tags? Is it
something planed? In which version?

In principle, adding support for more tag fields is simple. However, there are several problems associated with adding new fields. Mostly, the EasyTAG UI is becoming increasingly cluttered:

If we can come up with a good way to reduce the amount of screen space that the UI takes up while adding support for tag fields, I would be very happy. I would say that a 2.1.9 release should happen around the start of June, and after that I should have some time to work on support for extra tag fields. Of course, if someone else gets to it before then, I would find time to help merge any patches.
