My personal list of missing/useful to have stuff

* musicbrainz.org based re-tagger (something like Picard, but integrated
in RB; of course a lot simpler then picard: choose song(s), select Edit
-> Check metadata, present a dialog with proposed changes)

* composer/album artist/comment tags in properties dialog (to add
compose you could need recent CVS gstreamer version)

* print CD cover

* used/free space bar for devices like portable players*

PS of course this is all stuff "inspired" by latest iTunes releases,
sorry, no innovation.


[*] something like:
  Used: 400 MB [********      ] Free: 300 MB      75 songs, 10 misc file
