I've added this feature with [Mp3tag v3.37-beta.1](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/455), where you can now selected between using **Text file** and **Text** as source.

When switching to **Text** , the dialog becomes fully resizable and any the text field is pre-filled with the contents from the clipboard.

I've also added a live preview to both modes, so that the effects of the format string can be observed directly.
