So I've been a fan of this software for years, one thing I would LOVE to see is the ability to add track names from the clipboard

A lot of "indie" music, say from bandcamp, is not in musicbrainz, discogs or amazon

But it's easy enough to copy the track names from bandcamp or the band's web site, edit them in notepad to remove the junk and then use that as your track names

EAC has this option and it's a life saver.

Would be excellent if MP3TAG incorporated this feature as well

Did you have a look at Convert\>Textfile\>Tag?  
There you need a text file as created by notepad which then imports data from the text file into the specified fields.
