Recursively listing a directory in general would be a bad idea, since they can be very large e.g mine is 20Gb+ with 5000+ song and thats small compared with other people I know. Another problem is actually editing that many files at once would taking a long time, I have yet to implemented a way of showing how the tagging is going, so to the user it would look like the app was frozen when it actually working fine.

If you know a bit about the command line namely symbolic links, you could make a link to each audio file in a new folder and open that, the edits would be reflected in the original files.
