The problem starts with the "most common flags". Who will define
those? You've left out VBR, for a start. Similar, I know at least one
person who was very happy about that the "Audio Processing" tab where
you can set sampling frequency and filter options.
Personally, I started RL because of the many options Lame has to
offer, it's fun to play with them, and I wanted an easy interface. I
admit that the options dialog is far from being perfect, but I think
it's a good start.

Actually, this is on my wish list. However, unlike LAME, I'm currently
the only programmer in RazorLame (I hope this changes soon!), and the
wishlist grows and grows. Additional, I do this in my spare time, so
please be patient.
