Add Composer to "check tag accuracy"
Sorry if this has been requested (I'd be surprised if not) but I couldn't find it when searching. Could the Composer tag be added to the "Check tag accuracy" feature? This is one of the most problematic tags as there are so many (often terrible) ways that composers are tagged in metadata (Mozart, WA; W.A. Mozart; Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart; Mozart, W. A. (1756-1791) ... and on and on). If this could be addressed, I'm sure a lot of classical CD collectors would be very happy - especially if there were a way to enforce a canonical version (name order, no dates, etc.)

I'm using Swinsian. (I'd be happy to help with any debugging/testing for this issue or any other, if needed)

The Composer tag is *really essential* for those of us who have large classical music collections. Composer is generally the main search field and the main point of access when looking up albums to play.
Could the tag be added to the rule options, please? Would like to be able to check for Composer Missing and also Correct to Canonical Form.
Need to bear in mind that this is very often a track-by-track tag, with many CDs such as song collections having a different composer for each track.

Yep, should definitely add this in!
