Hmm, perhaps in a future version in setup can be defined "templates",
which fields should be shown on "edit" and "view" - so users can
switch off fields they don't need or don't want to see.

Also such selections can be useful for next steps like printing
lists, labels.

Not really. The "commercial" field can be already be filled on
recording from TV. But "reviewed" only after tape was really reviewed.

But like I wrote on top: it's (perhaps very) low prio.
