Actually its very common for a user to edit the tags of there MP3 files.
If there is no padding then a complete rewrite of file is necessary if
the size of the tag has increased or decreased.

This is very disputable, because user mostly edits the tag only once and
then burns it on CD. In this case there is no need to rewrite entire
file
again and again...
