Question Custom columns when adding books

I suspect the answer to this is no but I wanted to double check.

When using the 'Configure Metadata From Title' option in adding books is there a way to get Calibre to add metadata to columns other than Title, Author, Series, Series Index, Publisher, ISBN, and Published?

For instance could I setup up a regular expression template so that it would add to the tags column or, even better, to a custom column? I've tried and not had it work but I don't know if it's because of my lack of python/regular expressions knowledge or if it just won't work. I know I can tell Calibre to automatically add a tag every time I import a book but for this purpose I would need to change that tag so frequently it wouldn't be time efficient.

Thanks,

Beth
