That would be bloating the UI. And Jorn's generally against that.
Muine's designed with minimalism (but usability) in mind, and adding
that sort of option "strict tags" versus "canonical tags" would just
confuse the average user. Now making it a GConf key is a different
story, that might be doable. I just don't think that's something that
should be in the main UI. After all, if you music collection is even
half-way decently organized, this issue won't matter.

This might work, though I don't see a point to shrinking it to xmms's
size. Having just images is a possibility. Though having just a "Plus"
sign for Add song may be ambiguous. The tooltips help.
