Just a suggestion, has no bearing on functionality at all...

Obviously Mp3tag has its roots in Music/MP3, but personally I find it crazy useful as a general Media Manager. I have 3x separate portable installs of Mp3tag for Music, Podcasts, and Video (and no doubt will add more over time), very customised with specific tags/columns etc that make sense for that media. Been using this way for a long time.

Most docs, menus, (even install I think?) still assume music only. Just one guys opinion, but Mp3tag is a hell of lot more flexible than that, and maybe should be promoted as such. Your baby though...

What would you suggest as a better-matching name?

Could you give examples for this limitation? I just scanned through the menus and I find references to "tags" but not a specific type of playload data.  
The Overview in the documentation says:

> It supports batch tag-editing of ID3v1, ID3v2.3, ID3v2.4, iTunes MP4, WMA, Vorbis Comments and APE Tags for multiple files at once covering a [variety of audio and video formats](https://docs.mp3tag.de/file-formats).

> Furthermore, it supports online database lookup from, e.g., Discogs, MusicBrainz or gnudb, allowing you to automatically gather proper tags and download cover art for your music library.

> You can rename files based on the tag information, replace characters or words in tags and filenames, import/export tag information, create playlists and more.

Looks to me like the emphasis is on tagging.

Edit: the OP has not participated in the discussion which is a shame really, IMHO, as still the questions are open where the suggested alterations should be applied. I am missing a little more substance for the suggestion.
