C/C++ FLAC tagging library

Is there any C/C++ FLAC tagging library that work on streams? Wherever I look I only find ones that work on files. It's kinda weird to me - why use something limited like file instead of more abstract stream. Well, maybe I'm just spoiled by managed languages neatness (I'm more of a Java guy, but this time I need unmanaged code solution).

I'm not familiar with any FLAC libraries, but the reference FLAC library supports an interface for custom I/O. This allows you to write a small stub that will convert I/O calls to a custom data source, which needn't be a file.

It seems to require capacity to seek, though. If that is the case, then you might not be able to wrap a socket without a high-level protocol that allows you to seek.
