MRNUMBER and MRCLASS in MathSciNet translator
In case the title of this discussion does not give it away, I am a mathematician. The two websites where most of my imports come from are MathSciNet and the arXiv.
I recently started to put some attention into my Zotero library and realized that I don't have any MR numbers, nor any MSC classification numbers. From what I've been able to understand from the code, the MathSciNet translator feeds the BibTeX output of the website into the BibTeX translator. But even though the data I mention is included in said BibTeX output ---using the MRNUMBER and MRCLASS fields, respectively---, they are not processed by the BibTeX translator.
My JavaScript knowledge is minimal, so I don't know how to modify either the MathSciNet or BibTeX translators to take that information from MathSciNet and into my Zotero library. Can anybody help? I wouldn't presume to talk for all mathematicians, but I'm guessing a fair number of them would like to keep that information in their Zotero libraries.

MathSciNet is behind a paywall, so I cannot provide links. As an example, here's the BibTeX entry MathSciNet produces for one article:
@article {MR0237510,
AUTHOR = {Katz, Nicholas M. and Oda, Tadao},
TITLE = {On the differentiation of de {R}ham cohomology classes with
respect to parameters},
JOURNAL = {J. Math. Kyoto Univ.},
FJOURNAL = {Journal of Mathematics of Kyoto University},
VOLUME = {8},
YEAR = {1968},
PAGES = {199--213},
ISSN = {0023-608X},
MRCLASS = {14.52},
MRNUMBER = {0237510 (38 \#5792)},
MRREVIEWER = {J. S. Milne},
}
As for where it should be imported, I am not sure. I don't know if custom fields are allowed in Zotero entries. If they are, I believe the MR number should have its own; if not, I guess they could go into the Call Number field. The MRCLASS should probably be a tag ---maybe prepending the string "MSC" to it.
OK, let's try one:
http://www.ams.org/mathscinet/search/publdoc.html?arg3=&co4=AND&co5=AND&co6=AND&co7=AND&dr=all&pg4=AUCN&pg5=ICN&pg6=PC&pg7=ALLF&pg8=ET&r=1&review_format=html&s4=Katz&s5=Oda&s6=&s7=&s8=All&vfpref=html&yearRangeFirst=&yearRangeSecond=&yrop=eq
I think a tag with "MSC 14.52" makes sense, yes.
