That's right.  I was thinking of a general design like:

  "parse TXXX FOO BAR"  =>  set 'info-FOO to BAR, if info-FOO is a known info 
field

This is the way emms-info-native handles Vorbis comments.  They are
basically arbitrary KEY=VALUE pairs.  So TXXXs would be handled
equally--and they could override "standard" T-frames like TALB, which
someone might find troubling.  But this can be entirely academic issue
too.
