Interesting idea. Until then you might try to learn RegExp and use the replace function for this. Not a perfect solution, but quite good.

The example below demonstrates a common operation, where I need to remove the first part of each filename up to the first numeric digit. It would be good to be able to do a preset to remove the first part of the file name up to (but not including) the zero of the track number. Often the track names have a “ripper tag?” on the end of the file – ie it is proceeded with “rippedby megamonkey” or whatever on the end of each file name – would be good to automatically remove this too. I know this can all be done by renaming by MP3 tags – but sometimes these are not included
