There pretty much can't be many things for YEARS to come.
Unless you count the data(fields) which are available in external sources.
But for you already said that you won't "waste" letters for such things 
like 'category', 'actors', 'director', 'country of origin', 'original 
title', ....

So taking the 6(7 with V) used letters there are 19 "spare" letters 
including the "A"UX-letter.

But when you want to have 19 (+ a truckload of more non-letter 
characters) or IOW 300% chars in reserve who am i to call that a strange 
decision.

Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as
bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer
wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated,
cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous.
