[emms-help] (error "Invalid format string") when trying to edit tags

[Tassilo Horn]

Hi all,

today I noticed that I cannot edit the tags anymore.  If I hit `E' on a
track in my playlist, I get this backtrace:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Invalid format string")

Surely format-spec shouldn't become a propertized string.
