I use an application tag&rename.
It will tag albums using information from freedb.org and/or amazon.com
I find it works very well

One more thing... If you retag your files, be sure to check for any APEv2 tags attached to the files. Xbmc prefers these tags. (The exact preference is APEv2, then ID3v2, then ID3v1.)

A simple ID3 tag editor would be nice to add artist and album info to some of the music files i have that do not already have these set.
It's a pain to transfer back to computer to edit, then back onto Xbox to replace.

Why would you put them on your xbox? Stream them. That is one of the best things about XBMC!

I just find this thread while googling for a solution. 6 years later it seems that there is still no solution at all which is maybe a result of the multi Plattform architecture. To follow this idea a completely embeded mp3 tag editor had to be written in xbmc (Kodi). ANother solution would be to offer an option to embed an mp3 editor of your choice into the context menu. So it would need a field in the context menu of a track / album that open the track or album in a mp3 editor the user select in the settings before. This would make things much more comfortable. Maybe there exist already a plugin like that but I didnt find one at all.

Personally i think there are far better interfaces for tagging your library than a remote control. The 10' interface is great for watching, but anything that requires a lot of typing it's pretty awkward.
