a) can you see some other areas (in addition to audio files) where
this framework may be useful?

Movie/Video collection? (title, director, screen writer, actors)

Normalising form entries (e.g., on the web) against a database of countries
(provinces/states/regions; municipalities)?

Fantasy sports leagues (entry of short names to expand to player names, or
team names or whatever)?

Or do you mean to me, personally?

Of course, the personal point of view is as important as the
"theoretical" one.

b) does it deserve a new toplevel name "Normalize", or do you see
a better place in the module name tree?

Depends on how generic of a framework you can get it to. I would think
Data::Normalize::DB (object-noun-method) may be appropriate.

So far all the usages are with "Names", not arbitrary "Data"...
