Yes that could be handy, I might add another few fields.

I also looked back into my confusing remark on the upper/lower case
field names. I was not entirely wrong in what I said, but it seems to be
an issue specific to the "paste bibtex" feature. Before I was using the
ads-plugin I used to obtain the bibtex entry from ads and used the
"paste bibtex" feature in the properties dialog box in referencer to
import these data. Though the fields in the bibtex record are entirely
lower case, the fields that are not standard in referencer and which
thus end up as extra fields get assigned field names starting with an
upper case. It was thus for consistency with documents that I imported
earlier this way that I choose for the "Month" field instead of "month"
field. I agree it would be better to use the "month" field name, but
then "paste bibtex" should behave that way as well. Do you want me to
file a different bug report for this?
