Each music player seems to have its own way of 
doing things ...

Suggests tagging should be made configurable in some way:

The best mapping info I've found is at 
http://help.mp3tag.de/main_tags.html

According to the docs AtomicParsley is "clever" about tagging so
tagging an mp4 file with USLT shoud result in --lyrics being set.
So you could just configure the id3v2 tag names and they'll be applied
to whatever output file you create. No need to double configure for
mp3 and m4*.

Something like (in your options file)
tag.USLT id3_desc 
but this has disadvantages when/if there are no equivalents.

Or we could go the whole hog
tag,mp4,lyrics id3_desc
tag.mp3.USLT  id3_desc
etc.

Further down the line we could create groups of these as defaults for
particular players ...
