There is the field 'Composer', but often a work is created by a composer and text-writer. For instance: Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice.  
It would be nice to be able to record the text-writer as well.

You can create any user-defined tag field you wish, but most players will not be able to use or display them.

There is a full table of the current supported tags for mp3tag here:

@ MotleyG: As I described in my reply to my "request an extra year-field", again many thanks.  
I realize now I shouldn't bark before looking for all available information.  
Again: sorry, but many thanks for your kind and cooperative answer.
