Renaming tracks,etc. after grip

[Cyber Source]

I don't think he's being obsessed because he wants to have track titles 
and he doesn't need another app to do so. If he queries the database and 
it comes up with nothing and at that point he doesn't manually put them 
in, when he encodes, it will end up with track0 etc., not very pretty 
when you have alot of songs. It can very easily be done in grip.
