Customization like that is not upgrade safe.
You may consider creating a new screen to manage custom fields configuration.

If you really, really wants it in the Systems Setting page it is possible,
but that involves handcoding php, and is not upgrade-safe.

You would need to edit several of the files in modules/Configurator/
which ones depends on your specific needs.

And if you ever plan on upgrading you must keep track on what you changed,
(ideally using some version control tool like svn)
so you can reapply your changes after an upgrade,
