To add a new field the best way to do it is create a new, parallel, tx format 
where fields are committed by merkle radix tree in an extensible and provable 
way. You'd then commit to that tree with a mandatory OP_RETURN output in the 
last txout, or with a new merkle root.

Changing the tx format itself in a hard-fork is needlessly disruptive, and in 
this case, wastes opportunities for improvement.
