Comment (by lumpysimon):

 > and here is a very well put together elegant and simple plugin that
 might be just the thing: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/custom-field-
 suite/

 I agree that plugin does have a nice UI and provides a very quick way to
 add custom fields, including the much-needed repeating fields, but it also
 adds six database queries per page and two new database tables (one of
 which duplicates data from the postmeta table), so is extremely unlikely
 to make it into core in anything like its current form.
