There is a way - for sure. But I myself would not go the way using Mp3tag for this specific use case. Of course it's Cantello's decision how to procede.

`id3.exe` handles the tags - let's say - very flexible and doesn't care much about existing standards. Thats also the reason why you can write UPPER-/lowercase tags with `id3.exe` or as in this case a `TXXX:grouping` which should be GRP1 according to the ID3v2.3 and ID3v2.4 standard.

But this has already been discussed [here](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/possible-to-add-custom-txxx-tag-user-defined-text/66656) as I read in the meantime.
