Subtitle from wikidata?

P1680 aka subtitle doesn't seem to be pulled in yet.

I was poking around thinking how 'leet I'd look just pasting the changes needed but truly, I couldn't even find the darn thing!

"getQualifierValue |P1680" was where I was going to start, assuming the invocation has already occurred.--RaboKarbakian (talk) 17:22, 20 January 2021 (UTC)

Volume title

Would it make sense to have a field for the title of the volume as well as the number (the docs say volume is for the number)? Lots of multi-volume works have a title for a volume, which might be a date or date range (e.g. a journal), an alphabetic range (e.g. in a dictionary) or something else (e.g. Works of Shakespeare, Vol. 2: Macbeth). Currently, these are overloaded into the volumes field (a highly unscientific search with a regex that times out indicates thousands of such cases), which makes the data hard to parse universally.
