I looked at this and won't do it. The same list of fields is used in "edit metadata", "book details", and "quickview". Some of them need to add & remove fields where the data type description doesn't make sense. This takes us into "no good deed goes unpunished" territory.

Another wish list item.
In book lists I hide long text columns with an 'is set' icon, and to avoid horizontal scrolling I shrink the column widths accordingly, and I often give such columns a 2 character Header name. It would be good if columns had a another 'label' (e.g. Column title) which if present would be used in Book Details, Metadata Edit etc.
In this screen shot the Red labels in the Book details panel are Column titles for my #blurb and @checklist columns.

As always - only if its easy-ish

I will think about this if someday I am near the mass of code to manage and use custom columns. Don't hold your breath.
