I like @Ezodev's idea of a "replace" plugin that replaces certain characters in a song's metadata. I suggested something similar [here](https://github.com/beetbox/beets/issues/1893#issuecomment-196516291) that could "fix" #1893.

I wouldn't mind looking into this, however I'm not quite sure how the `skip` functionality would work. Do you have any specific events in mind for the `skip` operations @jhermann?...

The `zero` plugin will only remove fields which beets already knows about (via mediafile, see [here](https://github.com/beetbox/mediafile/blob/7ecd86101ec3344e7fb25bbf781cd7f86646aa9d/mediafile.py#L1669-L2167) for a list). You could try using the [`scrub`](https://beets.readthedocs.io/en/stable/plugins/scrub.html) plugin alongside `zero`, which should...

Sounds reasonable enough! I'm not sure how user-friendly it would be to support listing unsupported fields in `keep_fields`, as their names can differ from format-to-format (unlike the fields we support,...

Doing some digging, it seems like there's a bug in how we parse the `-p` flag. I'm not sure if something changed in optparse, but it looks like the `-p=path_format`...

[Send2Trash](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Send2Trash) looks like it might be good for this, although I'm not sure if it's worth adding another dependency for. Might be worth implementing as a plugin though.

I'm currently using the following workaround for machines which do not have a dbus session (and therefore can't use systemd user units): ```nix # In home-manager.users.your-name-here home.activation.agenix = lib.hm.dag.entryAnywhere config.systemd.user.services.agenix.Service.ExecStart;...

The above only seems to work at boot if you change the `secretsDir` and `secretsMountPoint` to be outside of `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR`, as this isn't set (and the directory likely doesn't even...

This issue isn't about beets randomly deleting your files - it definitely shouldn't be doing that. Could you please open a new issue @austinarchibald?
