The problem is that it's easier to use it the way slimserver does, because then the MP3 library does some additional parsing of the different tag to make them more user friendly. To get the extra tag one must use the MP3 library in raw mode which requires additional parsing by the caller. Due to this I think it's probably better to leave slimserver as it is as long as it doesn't also implement storing of custom tags. I think there is a feature request that describes that slimserver should store custom tags (approximately the same functionality as the Custom Scan plugin provides).
