Kid3-qt does not correctly display these filenames and directories in the open dialog, the file browser, nor in the filename field in the right section of the window. It looks like some extended ASCII encoding like Latin-1 or ISO-8859-* is assumed.

I have no autotools experience whatsoever. but a quick look in kid3-qt/configure.in shows a LIB_FLAC="-lFLAC++ -lFLAC" somehow this must go wrong however...

Don't get me wrong, it does what it says, but could you please add one option which does not touch following letters?
Greetings
P.S.: Thanks for this great tool!

However, when the configuration is stored, it is not checked if there are old commands which have to be deleted. If Kid3 is then restarted, the deleted commands will reappear. The total number of commands can only be increased, but not decreased.
Workaround: Manually remove the commands from the configuration (depends on platform: ~/.kde/share/config/kid3rc, ~/.qt/kid3rc, ~/.config/kid3.sourceforge.net/Kid3.conf or Windows registry), or apply the patch:

I don't know if it's needed or not, but in xmms the year doesn't show with id3 v2.4.0 except if I set TYER manually and using v2.3.0 it works no matter what. Since I can't choose to use v2.3.0 or v2.4.0 it becomes a big problem.

Whenever I make a change (delete element, change encoding of element/change element content) in the ID3v2 elements list, the list is sorted in a different order (the just edited element moves to the bottom).
This is highly annoying if there are many elements to edit, because you may lose track of which you already have changed. It's not what the user expects when she clicks on OK after editing an element.

While working with multiple files and accidentally saving, this can be quite annoying.
It would be nice to be warned when clicking remove without anything selected.

vorbiscomment doumentation: http://xiph.org/vorbis/doc/v-comment.html
In this documentation they encourage the use of several ARTIST tags if necessary, this is a very neat feature since much music is created as a collaboration between bands (ex. Linkin Park feat. Jay-Z)
Changes that would have to be made to kid:
The interface should show the same number of Artist textboxes as there are ARTIST tags within the file.
The interface should have a "Add another Artist field" and "Remove this Artist field"
this might be the issue with id3v2 tags too, but AFAIK id3v2 only supports 4 predefined artists.
