It you have many rows for the same song but it isn't one of the song
with duplicate musicbrainz id, you can skip the "disable musicbrainz"
step and just do the backup/wipe/rescan/restore procedure (which will
remove the duplicates). However, if you also have tracks with duplicate
musicbrainz tags you should really disable musicbrainz identities or
just remove the musicbrainz tags on all duplicate songs (and just keep
it on one song).

No, you will only loose ratings if you rename or move music files.

Good idea, have to think about it a bit more, will consider something
like this for a future release.
