Not yet :) Custom Columns (if thats what you mean!) are on the todo list though — I have a couple in my library, one for tracking Read state and another for tracking word count.
Filtering is only on author & title for now. I’m looking to rewrite filtering once I have support in libcalibre for more data, so that you can easily filter by custom columns.
How do you search / organize your data in Calibre now? What would be ideal?

Yeah, I have a bunch of them, one is "Read Status" (read, reading, to-read), another is "Recommended By" to track books recommended by various people, and the last one is "Folders" which I use to arrange books in a folder-like hierarachy.
For example, you could have a "Finance" folder, and then "Finance.Investing", "Finance.Personal Finance", "Finance.Trading" subfolders.
The calibre content server does support searching and viewing these columns, and in the desktop app you see the tree on the left pane which you can quickly browse.
To search a specific "folder" you'd use something like: #folder:"=Finance.Personal Finance" title:"happy money"
