RELEASETIME ID3tag deleted from file

When you editing song  hot cues, memory points after the process i see that ID3 tag 'RELEASETIME with format value YYYY-MM-DD' was deleted from mp3 file. Not left blank, empty but deleted. The tag was in that format all the time. Rekordbox on import get the release tag information from this tag but somehow when you working with the file and later save process happend the ID3 tag RELEASETIME it also removed from the mp3 file.

I read old topic, but it looks its still there, or some part of the problem

Are you making the edits to the ID3 tag within rekordbox or in another application after you've imported it to rekordbox?

To reproduce:
have a RELEASETIME ID3 tag in mp3 file, import this file to rekordbox and let the rekordbox analyze the file. When the file is in analyzing process tag is still in the file and rekordbox get the release day from this tag. When the analyze process finish, tag is removed. (for example look on the file with mp3tag program) when you now on rekordbox right click on the track and do 'Reload Tag' the release day is also removed from rekordbox. If i change the release day in rekordbox, the release day is not saved to mp3 file. So again Relod Tag option delete the release day from rekordbox. If you add the RELEASETIME tag with another program. again for example mp3tag and in rekordbox Reload Tag, the release day appear in rekordbox. If you change some other information like artist with rekordbox, the artist ID3 tag is updated, but again RELEASETIME ID3tag is deleted.

Also i dont like the way how the rekordbox is letting you updating the release time field. To change the release time user must click on three list to select correct option and this its too slow from the option just to write the date.

Because all of this i prefer any ID3 tag operation in external program and then only press reload tag in rekordbox.
