In MC17 these two things are a constant annoyance and affect me almost daily
If they're fixed in MC18 then I'll upgrade just to stop the aggravation
If they're still the same, then tbh, there's nothing new in MC18 that I actually want and I'll skip this version

1)
Dragging multiple files to the treeview on the left, to set multiple tag values
Problem:
if there are many files and many tags are set you have to confirm each tag change to the same files, clicking ok over and over again
Solution:
once I've confirmed that I want to change the files tags, just ask once

2)
Copying files to a handheld device using an external encoder
Problem:
MC makes wild inaccurate guesses about file sizes - I think it's just using the uncompressed file size
If you're copying eg an audio book with 500 tracks it repeatedly tells you that there isn't enough space and removes the "excess" files
Then you have to add them to the queue again, and keep repeating the whole process over and over and over (with a nice long wait inbetween adding them so you have to sit and watch it)
Solution:
Move the free space check to after converting a file and check the actual file size, then stop when there isn't enough room for that file
