Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I notice that when tagging collections (TPBs and Hardcovers), the collection title isn't added as a field in the xml.

Describe the solution you'd like
Store the collection title from collection series types (TPBs and Hardcovers) in the MetronInfo.xml

Describe alternatives you've considered
I also tried to use the metrontalker plugin for comictagger to tag collections and the same happened.

Additional context
Also use the collection title for collections as the primary title instead of story titles and also be able to rename collections with this collection title E.g "Batman HC (2012) - v1 Court of Owls".

As far as I'm aware CT doesn't support MetronInfo.xml, and if I remember correctly ComicInfo.xml doesn't have a field for the collection title, so I'm not surprised it didn't work.

I'm not sure that's a great idea, and truthfully, I've been planning on removing some of the more oddball options (maturity rating, scanner info) from the filerenamer module for awhile, just haven't had time to do it.

I realized this actually as I was reading MetronInfoxml documentation. I thought CT's metrontalker plugin saved into a MetronInfoxml file but I guess it doesn't.

That's ok. Just an afterthought

Thanks.

I've talked to the upstream a little bit, and I believe they are planning to add support for MetronInfo.xml sometime in the future.
