Binary package hint: banshee

In the track editor dialog, if a year is unknown for a song, it defaults to 0, which is fine, but it would be better if it defaulted to hyphen, because then it would allow the spinners to start at a number near the year of the song.

For example, if it's at zero now, and I click the up spinner, it goes to the year 1BCE. This isn't so good. If it started with hyphen, and I clicked the up arrow and it went to 2000, that would be better. Subsequent down presses could go to 1999, 1998, etc., and up presses could simply work as usual.

It's very trivial as bugs go, but would be an improvement to the UI.
