Default One-stop metadata editing in WMP?

WMP seems lame at being smart with edits to .wma metadata. Here's my
situation: i've ripped an obscure CD that WMP doesn't recognize, so i've
supplied the metadata for it by hand. When i check the location of the files
on the hard drive (i.e. where the music got ripped to), i see that none of
my edits were applied to the directory name or filenames themselves.
Everything appears as 'Unknown Artist\Unknown Album'. This sucks.

Anyone know if there's a way to make edits simultaneously to the properties
and file- / directory-names?
