Hi,

Sound Juicer has a menu item which was labelled CD->Submit in 2.12, and
in 2.14 is labelled CD->Submit Track Names.

Both of these are incorrect. What the button *actually* does is open
the relevant page on the MusicBrainz server for that CD, so if it found
a matching album you can edit the metadata if it is incorrect, and if it
wasn't found you get an import page. The import could be submitting a
new TOC (different releases often have different TOCs) for an existing
CD, or importing from FreeDB, or entering the data from scratch. When
this is done the user can re-read the CD in SJ and they'll get the new
data.

It's quite tricky to cover all of that in a single menu entry. Any
suggestions? CD->Edit Track Data is the best I can come up with.

Wouldn't people expect to have it enter editing mode in s-j rather than
go to a web page?
