I can speak only of my own experience. If you explore the MPD github issues a few years back you'll see I had several. My memory is hazy but I think my record is 1 win, 1 loss, and 1 split decision. My win was getting a new metadata type "work". A composer-work-performance hierarchy makes much more sense for classicial music than does artist-album-song.
MPD documentation claims it supports 32 different metadata types. For my test FLAC file with all 32 types populated the MPD database appears to contain almost all (there's a few interesting glitchs but my testing isn't done).
However, the interfaces moOde uses don't allow access to them all. For example, exercising the MPD protocol through a telnet session, I get the following when I ask about mood
the MPD utility mpc says the following
That's only 21.
I don't have a fully populated MP3/ID3 test file yet.
