Somehow this reminds me about a thought I had quite a while ago.
Could this (and possibly many other future requests) be satisfied by
introducing a new layer of abstraction, "datatypes"?  

Now we have two timestamps, one free text field and arbitrary number
of enumerations and the entities of enumerations are organizable to a
hierarchy within the enumeration.  What if we had arbitrary number of
fields with arbitrary datatype (timestamp, free text, hierarchical
enumeration, number?, geocoordinate?, whatelse?) and a preset of two
timestamps, free text and a couple of enums?  Might we then possibly
have a repository of schemas for particular purposes?
