Similarly, I am in favor of won't fix, for the same reasons.

This is a bit more annoying to revert
2017-03-20 07938, 2017

But I still think it makes sense to leave it auto-editable

The data is still available in the edit history, and Track MBIDs are preserved, so no data is lost with the moves back and forth.

yes

it could have been confused for track re*ordering*

which is a mess if it was auto

So. The only thing between me and a "let's no longer standardise "ft." and whatnot to "feat."" guideline change is the lack of a Picard plugin to re-standardise it for people who want that

I probably could learn to write Picard plugins since it sounds like an easy one, but tbh I have a huge amount of things to do as it is, so I'd be very nice if someone else volunteered ;)

I have enough on my plate, but I desperately want to no longer standardize feat. (And, in practice, I don't. :-P)

There is already a feat. plugin (or several?), so they should probably "just" get updated with new code.

So yeah, if anyone is willing to take this on, it should be just a simple regexp
