Are you and J. sure?  Package description says:

        ...Grabs an entire CD and converts each track to the specified
        formats and then comments or ID3-tags each file, with one command.

I take the "one thing" as all those steps, collectively.  So that
failing one step, owing to variable circumstances, 'abcde' currently
allows one to do many things over.  For example, if the rip fails
partway, (say the DAE on a CD drive is weak) 'abcde' still keeps a temp
directory with CDDB data, and allows one to continue later, (on a CD
drive with better DAE), without starting from scratch (no pun
intended).  So there's already "do over" functionality. I don't
understand why a proposed CDDB/ID3 tagging "do over" should
conceptually be any different than an extant ripping "do over".
