Although it's not exactly file organization, the biggest tagging headache for me has definetly been genres. I now use discogs genres & styles and any album in that database follows that system, but sometimes I get an album which is not entered into discogs and then I have to try and figure it out myself of course.
To organize one's music files by genre seems like a particularly bad idea to me, at least if you want consistency.

Also, I only put Disc Number in the Album title so that the folders are organised correctly both in and out of Foobar. Its not, strictly speaking, the wrong info in my eyes, just because I can't count the number of multiple disc albums I have where the gracenote or FreeDB tags have put that exact same piece of info in the same place!

On discogs (which I often use), Album Title and Disc Number are separate bits of info and my tagger puts the info in separate tags. Luckily, as a foobar user, you can easily remap those parts of your albums titles to the disc number tags should you want to in the future. Oh, and you should get into the scripting part. It's really quite easy! edit : Some time ago, I started using two separate date tags. I consider date to be the original release date for the album, when it was first released. Then I also use a custom tag called Release Year which is intended for later releases of that album, f.ex remasters. So, a 40th anniversary edition of an album may have 1971 as it's date and 2011 as it's release year. For folders, I currently keep the info like this : 1971 - In the Land of Grey and Pink [Studio Album, 2011 Rerelease]
