So there's only a suggested list of tags.

Well, there's your answer then...it seems like it simply wasn't a priority to the FLAC developers.
Anecdotally, even though a large portion of my own collection is FLACs, I tend to go for separated tracks. But I feel like many of the FLAC enthusiasts will only distribute their rip as a single, monolithic FLAC with a CUE file to handle the track separation and pregaps. I guess they feel like they're better preserving the integrity of the original rip that way by altering it as little as possible. I wonder if perhaps that might influence the lack of attention to the metadata fields.
