As far as I can tell, I can't customize the fields in the "info" tab for sources. It seems like this would be useful, for a number of reasons:
-for people using archival material, they could add the fields they needed to keep track of box #'s, etc.
-I personally would rather have fewer fields even available, so I didn't have to scroll through
-for improving note-taking--in my ad-hoc system of taking notes on books in Word, I had a template with fields for thesis, main points, and theoretical angle. This was hugely helpful for comprehensive exams -

I agree. Instead of adding a gazillion new citation formats for the most obscure types of sources, make a feature that lets a user create custom defined Info fields. These would probably not export as citations, but not all records one creates in Zotero are intended to be used as references. Sometimes we just want to store and map information and examine it within the program.
