The custom tags PR has not yet been merged, see the open TODOs.

Internally each custom tag already a normalized "score" between 0.0 and 1.0. Currently, in Mixxx this defaults to 1.0 and is not exposed in the UI. As already outlined one could define a common "facet" named "timbre" and assign normalized scores to that. For this use case, the "label" of the tag is supposed to be empty.

I disagree with your assumption that only a few tracks have custom tags. Maybe for you, but not for others.

Custom tags are stored in a separate table, please refer to the database schema. Joining the score from selected facets into the track query might work, but I don't plan to extend the current, legacy database queries and views. Lack of time and motivation.

Managing physical tracks: aoide uses URIs to locate the actual track resource. For local files, the scheme is just "file://". It is only a database service and does not access those resources, which could also be physical records.

Any help to complete and finish this feature is appreciated.
