It's a pity that it isn't possible according to Florian. It's been a desired feature for years, since the non-custom fields tease this feature.

Throughout the week I manually input a selection of values to different fields from a list, and considering Mp3Tag's automated functionality it seems a natural fit. Also would help reduce naming errors.

Just for completion and to close this topic: this has been added as **Custom List Values** with [Mp3tag v3.18](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/mp3tag-v3-18-released/58614).
