Currently GST_TAG_MUSICBRAINZ_SORTNAME (which sorts the track artist) is
specific to MusicBrainz, but needn't be.  

It should probably be renamed to something generic like
GST_TAG_ARTIST_SORTNAME.
Further, because some tagging backends support it, other tags should be added,
so the list might be (with corresponding id3v2 tag as an example):

GST_TAG_ARTIST_SORTNAME              TSOP
GST_TAG_ALBUM_SORTNAME               TSOA 
GST_TAG_TRACK_SORTNAME               TSOT
GST_TAG_ALBUMARTIST_SORTNAME         (none in id3v2)
