I see that you allow the inclusion of arbitrary keys, but don't currently do anything with them.
I currently keep notes as Markdown files, with similar key/value pairs at the start of each. I then have a hacky script [1] that extracts all such data from each note with a particular tag, and prints the results as a table. So I have automatically generated tables for my notes on talks (with columns for the date, venue, speaker's name, and talk series), books (title, author, publisher), recipes (title, course, source, whether I've cooked it), etc. without needing any special configuration.
If I were to use Collate, I'd keep notes on talks/books/recipes in separate notebooks, so it would be a useful feature to display a table of all key/value pairs in a particular notebook.
