I didn't think it would be a good idea to create a "quick" way to do this, to
prevent it from happening accidentally. Currently you can remove the tag by
deliberately clearing all the fields (about 14 keystrokes.)

Any advanced functionality I think should be left to special-purpose tag
editors.

I think this is probably useful, and have added it to the list.

Is this really useful? Some people (myself included) like less clutter.

Besides, when the ID3v2 tag editor is in place, it won't be practical to have
the MPEG Audio shown in both places (ID3v1 and ID3v2.)

Yes please!
