Michal,
That's my understanding (don't forget APE tags).  I think the idea is that anything aware of ID3v2 tags at the end of the file should be able to handle its position among other tags, whereas something that only reads ID3v1 (+Lyrics3, or +APE) at the end of the file should not be disrupted.

I'm sorry, I just want to correct my question. The word "like" is 
missing in my previous post:
...So, if there are some other "tagging systems" appended to the file, 
would the ID3v2.4 tag be located_ like _this?:...
