Export Multiple?

When you hit Export Multiple and it starts to slice up your project into individual files based on labels, in older versions of Audacity it asked once for Artist & Album, etc. In Beta it seems to ask for each file, which is a lotta cutting and pasting. Clicking "Set As Default" works good for when you get to Side 2 of the album. Is there an easier way?

In 1.3.11, before you select the Export Multiple command, go to File > Open Metatdata Editor and fill in the common information - Artist, Album. etc. Go to Edit > Preferences then the Import/Export section and uncheck "Show metatdata editor before export step". Now when you do Export Multiple Audacity will fill in the Artist and Album the same for each file, and will use the label text for the Song Title and the position in the export as the Track Number.
