We could easily chop those long tags to 6-7 chars. Shall we?
Yes, we should because ATM we don't control them, and we can not allow unlimited strings in there. But 6-7 is a bit drastic. Looking at current result, even 20 chars is still OK. For example we have:
DimitrisKoukoravas JackHollingworth
we can't quite shorten these meaningfully. I'd have: 1. Un upper limit of around 20-25 chars 2. Maybe a smart splitter that would split the ID's at capitalization points:
Dimitris Jack Koukoravas Hollingworth 3. Decrease the font size even more. Right now it's <small>, but we can do a <font size=-5> or somesuch.
Do you mean something like -M key:file or -M key=value? I agree that something like this should probably be added.
Yes, something like that. I'm not sure we need a key/value syntax (do we?), even just -M string would do. But if all metadata is in the key,value format, sure, -M key=value would be great.
