Missing option to add DOI field to columns in main window

e.a.whitley@lse.ac.u
Apologies if I missed this, but in 10.0-beta.4+03d94060b (64-bit) I don't seem to be able to add the DOI field to the columns in the main window (e.g. in the screenshot I've added Call Number without any problem) but DOI doesn't appear.

    Why do you want a DOI column? DOIs aren't human-readable or sortable.

    There are many more fields than appear in the menu (e.g., ISBN and other ids aren't there either).

    My use case is: When using zotero for putting together student reading lists, being able to quickly check if (typically older) references don't have a DOI means I can then update the record so that the students can click through to the source.

    FWIW, you can use an advanced search (or saved search) for that. [Collection] [is] [collection] and [DOI] [does not contain] [/].

    Thanks for the tip
