Tags / Labels / Categories
Tags (or labels, or categories) can be assigned to songs, albums, or artists.
This gets stored in two ways:
- In a subdir for the song/album/artist. For a song, this would be something like a "mylabel" line in ".song.mp3/.tags", or perhaps a file called ".song.
- In a tag directory. This would be a symlink pointing at each song/album/artist. For example, "tags/mylabel/
A command would be needed to add tags to an object, list tags associated with an object, remove tags from an object, and synchronize the two tag storage locations. (sync is needed after renaming files, mostly... remove any broken symlinks, add links which should exist but don't, and add any missing tag file entries for incoming links)
Also, some way to specify tags would be needed for other commands. For example, instead of "musec add foo.mp3", the user might want to do "musec add tag::classical" or similar.
Another (optional) consideration is nested categories. For example, "tags/parent/
