It is not mention that the latest release of FLAC allows one to use both
FLAC container or Ogg container, which allows proper ff and rw.

However, the a FLAC file inside an Ogg container has a problem: there is
not way to modify the tags once the file has been created. Tags must be
set during the encoding. At least until someone modifies
metaflac/vorbiscomment to allow such modifications (I was told on
#vorbis@freenode that modifications were on their way, but still not have
happened). Anyone?
