Rather than continuing to hijack the original foo_musicbrainz thread, I'm starting my own. As the name implies, this is 64bit only for fb2k v2.
Details and download here: https://marc2k3.github.io/component/musicbrainz64/
New version released just now adds support for writing COMPOSER and PERFORMER tags. There are limitations. If that big old wall of text is too much, just check the Changes section.
edit: what gets written will depend on what is available under the Release credits section of a given release.

1.2.2
`CATALOGNUMBER` and `LABEL` can now be multi-value. Previously, only the first value was written.

1.2.3
`COMPOSER` and `PERFORMER` from the `recording` level are now supported. The original implementation only supported `release` level. If both are encountered, they should be combined but that has not been tested.

1.2.4
- Fixes a bug introduced in `1.2.3` where a `PERFORMER` credited with the same `instrument` at `recording` and `release` level would see that `instrument` duplicated.

No changes in functionality from previous release but some code has been modernised and it's now open source.
edit: in the unlikely event anyone does want to compile their own, it's easiest to install dependencies via vcpkg
It also requires VS 2022 17.5+ because it uses features not available in earlier versions.

1.2.9
https://github.com/marc2k3/foo_musicbrainz64/releases
I can only apologise for these bugs. I'm an early contender for incompetent buffoon of the year award. :'(
- Fix bug where ascii punctuation replacements were not applied if enabled in the Preferences.
- v1.1.2 added support for writing ARTISTSORT and ALBUMARTISTSORT and it was clearly stated that foobar2000 would transform these to ARTISTSORTORDER and ALBUMARTISTSORTORDER when tagging mp3/m4a. Unfortunately I did not notice that this would not clear any existing ARTISTSORTORDER and ALBUMARTISTSORTORDER values so if you tagged the same tracks more than once, values would be appended instead of overwriting. This is now fixed.

Just to follow on from my ascii puntuation balls up, I've made a component that can fix any selection of files offline from the context menu, There is a Convert Unicode punctuation to ASCII option under the Tagging menu.
It will report the count of files that need fixing, send them to a new playlist and then prompt you to fix them. Just hit Cancel if you'd rather inspect the tags manually.
The bundle contains 32bit and 64bit dlls for fb2k 2.0.
https://marc2k3.github.io/files/foo_punctuation_fix-1.0.0.fb2k-component
edit: because this iterates every tag in every selected track and performs several string replacements on every one. you should consider limiting selection sizes.

In a somewhat strange turn of events I've decided to make this 32bit compatible. The name remains the same just to confuse people. :P
No new features since the last 64bit release but it still has more to offer than the original component like having support for multi-value artists, performers/instruments, composer, artist sort etc.
https://github.com/marc2k3/marc2k3/releases
Full docs: https://jscript-panel.github.io/other/musicbrainz64/
For existing 64bit users, all preferences have been reset. It's had a large internal rewrite at the same time.

Being the utter chump I am, I didn't realise the above release was crashing on every shutdown. No crash report dialog but you may well have a profile folder full of dumps which you should delete so you won't get confused in future. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Any possibility to add other credits tags as lyricist, writer, vocals, etc?
And about the composer, I don't use the component too much still, but I found that in releases like https://musicbrainz.org/release/3ab9c050-a9a9-4cf7-a10c-5e801bc455ce the song 10 Going to School have composer: Buddy Guy but is not written in tag (I have Write COMPOSER marked in preferences)

Vocalists should already be written as performers.
That composer seems to come from a related work which this component has never considered before. I'll look in to it.

I hoped it will be possible, there is a lot of data in some releases that will be interesting to have available in tags

I tagged a few more released and I also have the lead vocals in performer tag.
Edit:
In the same releases series, I found one that have lead vocals and vocals
https://musicbrainz.org/release/bb9be24e-a4d7-4185-b8df-2ca2b9496fbe
Elmore James has both vocals and lead vocals credits but only the song with lead vocals (11) have the performer tag.
The vocals in tracks 5, 8, 14, 15 and 17 are not written

"The whole purpose of this is to unify tag display/search across foobar2000 regardless of file format."
This has been my wish for a long time.
And in the meantime, I directly modified the tag to do so.
However, when I tried to edit something with mp3tag, the FLAC file was fine, but
In the case of mp3 files, some fields such as MBID field and ORIGYEAR were changed unintentionally.
The 'User-defined field mappings' option didn't help me either.
So, after using mp3tag, I had to edit the tag once more with foobar2000.
It was a real hassle, but this is what I ultimately wanted.
So I really agree with "The whole purpose of this is to unify tag display/search across foobar2000 regardless of file format."
I have one question
Does MusicBrainz64 intentionally omit the 'ALBUM ARTIST' field?
While testing after deleting some or all tags, I found that the 'ALBUM ARTIST' field was missing.
I thought it was a conflict with the existing MusicBrainz Tagger, so I deleted MusicBrainz Tagger and foo_musicbrainz.dll.cfg, but 'ALBUM ARTIST' is still missing.
Your Components are always useful thank you

album artist is only written when it needs to be. When you have an album where the artist is identical for every single track, it's not written because it's pointless.
https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Foobar2000:Encouraged_Tag_Standards#ALBUM_ARTIST
Everyone one should be using %album artist% title formatting in library viewer grouping/playlist headers etc where the artist will be used if album artist is not present. That is documented here...
https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Foobar2000:Title_Formatting_Reference#.25album_artist.25
And while most players don't have anything quite like title formatting, they usually follow the general rule. Even steaming piles of poop like itunes and WMP do (or did - I've not tested for years :P)

It's interesting. Since the first time I ripped a music CD a long time ago, the album artist tag field has always been filled in, so I thought it was natural.
Really interesting, I was missing something very basic :))
I will update to 2.4
Thank you very much

Now that this is 32-bit I get to use it, so cheers for that.
I had 'Write standard tags' unchecked and 'Always write ORIGINAL RELEASE DATE' unchecked, but it was still written because I guess it differed from the DATE as mentioned in the change log, even though DATE (standard tags) is not written. That seems not right. Both were greyed out in the preview.
Performer (Instrument) tagging is neat. Now to decide what to do with it ... ;D

If you ever want to display them in layout, the Properties + Other Info script with JScript Panel3 does a better job than other components by displaying multi-value tags on their own lines.
