My 2c:

I think the player developers should design their software so that the
display for comment fields is customizable by the user. I don't see
another way of fully satisfying everyone's needs regarding the subject.
So, maybe you could ask the author of your favourite player to add this
feature?

I am generally content with the variety of field names, but I would really appreciate having a standard GUESTARTIST field (or something in the vicinity) to be able to better describe collaborations. This is helpful in cases where there is a main artist for the track/album, and there are also guest artists that do vocals, remixes etc. I understand that I can just put it there myself, but as long as it is not standard, players will not really recognize it when formatting tracks in playlists, etc.
