I think that the examples only work for Mp3 files. They would not work for MP4, Flac, matroska and all the others that do not use native id3vX tag formats.  
I also have problems to imagine what the display should look like for a bunch of selected files e.g. from the same album by the same artist but in different file formats, e.g. mp3 files for audio only and mp4 for a video file.

In general: your idea is not new, see e.g. here:

One-half and one-third width definable user fields in the Tag Panel tha…
