and here is the other one:

How about giving the user a possibility to create his own additional database fields as he sees fit?
They could be stored under the "personalize DVD" dialog and exported to XML like:
<Usercreated>
  <IMDB>123456</IMDB>
  <other_field_I_miss>foobar</other_field_I_miss>
  ...
</Usercreated>

Quite similar to Tags, but where Tags can only be set/not_set the additional fields can hold alphanumerics.
The existing field "Notes" is unfortunately unfit for such a purpose, when one wants to stick to clean XML.

Yes please.

Would be really nice to be able to add my own fields.

I'd like, to break out costs. So have shipping, duty, discount recorded to name a few.

I'd like to see custom text field as well, specially if we could sort our collection according to a custom field in addition to exporting them to XML.
