Although Mp3tag cannot create a TXXX field without a description it seems other programs can but Mp3tag does not display them.
I suppose a blank description is allowed with TXXX fields as it is with COMM fields?

I had another look at the specification and there is no explicit statement on whether a TXXX frame requires a non-null description.
However, Mp3tag's design is based on key-value pairs so that those fields cannot be displayed. I'll mark this as "No Bug".
Kind regards
