Our catalogers agree wholeheartedly with this suggestion, and I found this request because we were about to add it ourselves.
Our cataloging team gave me the following information that I'll share:
"If you can only persuade Vega to show three additional tags, I think that the 500, 520, and 700 tags are the most important.
500 - general notes (most important as varied information is placed in 500 field, including sequel notes, publishing histories, oddity notes, etc.)
501 - with note (used when multiple titles are bound together as they sometimes are in Juvenile Early Readers)
505 - formatted contents (table of contents)
510 - citation/reference notes
511 - participant or performer note (especially important for AV)
520 - summary (already included?)
521 - target audience note (including MPAA ratings)
538 - system details note (system requirements, especially important for AV)
540 - terms governing use and reproduction note (legality notes)
546 - language note
586 - awards note (some readers may be seeking LAMBDA, Caldecott award winners, etc.)
590 - local note (not frequently used at MCPL but helpful to see when present)
700 - add entry -- personal name (contributors and their relators, VERY important)
710 - added entry -- corporate name (corporate contributors like production studios, etc., especially important for video games)
856 - electronic location and access (links, should display no matter what indicators are selected)Vanessa Schwegman

A patron shared insightful comments highlighting the importance of note fields, especially the ability to determine if a video offers subtitles for the hearing impaired.
"For more detail, I now have the DVD “Trouble in Paradise" (1932) checked out. Here are some of the things that do not appear in the new presentation that were quickly seen in the old one.
1) "Video recordings for the hearing impaired.” Knowing there are subtitles is important to me. (Note: This data is available in the 546 field of the record in question.)
2) "I don’t see the year of the film (1932) in the new catalog. (Note: While the publication date of 2003 is included, the 500 field that states “Originally produced as a motion picture in 1932” is absent.)”
