Cofigurable metadata handling on download/display

Ded10c commented 3 months ago

Where lyrics include metadata, it may be inconsistent, incorrect, or otherwise different from the user's own tagging, and it'd be nice to be able to control how this data is handled. The obvious suggestion is a checkbox to control whether a metadata block at the start of the lyrics is displayed or not, but an option could also be provided to strip it before saving - and also for the user to configure what is displayed rather than just whether anything is, such as by:

Omitting certain tags (particularly [by: ], [re: ] or [ve: ])
Controlling the order tags are displayed in
Replacing tags with a titleformat reference to existing tags, whether to override them or to substitute for tags missing from the lyrics

I'm not sure I understand your concerns about how tag info is displayed: it isn't. The only tag that has any functional impact is offset.

Replacing tags based on metadata could be a feature on its own I guess.

I was sure I had an example of this but I can't find anything, so I think I must've gotten my wires crossed. Sorry about that!
