Summary0021701: External Tags: We should add ability to mask External tags in Auto Tools
DescriptionCurrently MM support reading and cataloging EXTERNAL TAGS in File Properties, but it is not available anywhere for use even MM do not have native support for them.

I would suggest that we try to implement some sort of Mapping for use in specific cases where users either have Special Tags in Folder/Filename or wish to Organize files using External Tags.

I would suggest syntax something like:
$EXTENDED(<'Field'>) -> ADD/GET EXTENDED tag in MM database and use it for Auto Tag from Filename or Organize files

This is extremely useful for extended tags like RELEASETYPE (album), RELEASESTATUS (official), CATALOGNUMBER (...), MEDIA (CD), LANGUAGE, ...

NOTE: For Scripts developers can use https://www.mediamonkey.com/docs/api/classes/Native.Track.html#getExtendedTagsAsync and https://www.mediamonkey.com/docs/api/classes/Native.Track.html#setExtendedTagsAsync
Steps To ReproduceSAMPLE Files with Picard extended tags are uploaded to FTP.
