Having a "Previous Title" field for resource records would be nice. I believe you would have to use a user-defined field, but someone on this list correct me if I'm wrong.

This field is in Finding Aid Data in resource records, but there's not a comparable field in accession records and we want to be able to sort records by creator surname sometimes. Not exactly the same as your use case, but thought I'd share nonetheless.
