Why no editable Trailer URL?

Just a question, why is there no editable trailer URL box in the metadata editor? Almost everything else has an edit box, why not let us change / edit / add the proper URL to our files instead of attempting to force users to go spend 5-10 minutes at TheMovieDB to add a URL then wait until it gets populated, or manually open up XML / NFO files and add it there?  Keep in mind, I am not suggesting you bypass any terms of service with trailer providing sites and actually allow us to play them from the metadata page, although a >> preview button next to them would be rocking, even if it opened in a new tab on their site.. but make it easier for us to add them / edit them please!

 

Additionally, perhaps a working "submit Trailer url" button could be added using our login to TheMovieDB (for example) that would populate the movie title / info, and submit the trailer URL to their site so other users benefit as well without having to go directly to their site and jump through hoops just to enter one there.

 

ALSO.. why the heck not go one step further and add a little movie reel icon to the overlay when hovering over a movie poster that links to the trailer and opens it in its own windows (even on the YouTube site so as not to violate any terms of service) so we don't have to click all the way into a movies info page just to find a trailer??

 

Just a few thoughts that deserve a second look, imho. Thanks.
