No, free-form fields should be somewhere else. Propose a "keywords" field if
you like, but I believe the description field performs this job adequately.
I work for a company that runs conferences. We have approximately 7,500
proposals in across 10 conferences. They're all humanities-related, but in
slightly different fields. Regardless, we now have 25,000 unique "keywords"
that have been supplied from our free-form keywords field. Not so useful.
