Yeah, people are already trying to improve the UI: http://postimg.org/image/lduu6hy2d/ (that isn't an improvement but it's just showing it's quite easy to do).
Also, Item modifications (for stats/descriptions) can be done in data/afs/xls_data/ITEM.BIN. You'll need a hex editor (hxD for example) to look at it and learn its format.
The other files found on the same directory can also be modified to change magic, shop prices, etc etc.
Enemy/Boss stats can be changed in data/afs/boss_hardmode and data/afs/enemy_hardmode. Same deal, the BIN files are what govern stats and behaviour. Modifying these files is not trivial, but it is doable.
People are also changing the music: https://www.copy.com/s/t%3AWO7E4iRwlEVngR3Q%3Bp%3A%252FGrandia2%2520music%2520replace.mp4%3Boid%3A107
Someone on NeoGAF replaced the compass with random stuff http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=176419769&postcount=577
I could make an application to make the life of others easier to change the music with a nice user interface. Maybe I will do it.
(at least for the audio)
Sometimes this is just a development issue; I've done very limited game development myself.
Basically while you're working on a game you and your team are throwing files around all over the place. Just before release you have to clean up the files and remove anything that isn't being used to reduce the size of your game data as much as you can; sometimes people miss things. Other times people use the same files twice; coding usually has something to do with that.
There are people who clean up files while they're developing, but you'd be surprised at how much data that isn't being used is often left over in games and shipped (and how many people find them).
Theoretically just replace the music files entirely. If you keep the filenames it should just call on whatever song you placed in it as if it was a regular resource.
If you mean replace the current version of the music tracks with better versions, you'd have to have the better versions. I personally own the OST so I could always pull them up for myself (after converting it to the right format; but I wouldn't know how to do that for .ogg). If you don't own the tracks and want the original music you'd have to find a way to get them. Otherwise you could just replace it with anything you wanted to.
