It's not about clicking mouse once or twice. 🙂  
It's all about adding cool _intelligent_ features to make Mp3tag even better. 🙂  
The program cannot and shouldn't do everything itself but IMO whenever possible it should make the best choice for the user: strip unlikely wanted leading zeros, try to guess the name pattern, etc. That's what is 'smart' software, not just 'usable'.

However, I admit the author might have another plan on his mind. 🙂 So I don't insist. 🙂 It was just a proposal for consideration. 🙂

I don't know, if I understand you: Are you thinking of a edit-box at the numbering wizard to enter the name of a custom tag field which will store the totaltracks part?

This is exactly what I am after! 🙂
