Work Item Customization

Hi,
I added my own WI attribute (wi_name), type smallHtml, which will replace existing summary of work item. When I replace existing summary in editor header of work item with new WI attribute, I can write some value, but when I save that work item, in the tab of saved work item, I get the id of work item, and value <untitled>. When I back old WI attribute (summary), everything works fine (getting the WI id and summary together)!
How can I bind the new attribute (wi_name) that will show the real name of work item when I save it, like it is the case with original attribute summary?
Here is example:

Point to link Work Item Header, then click on picture!
Thanks,

The summary is a built-in attribute of the work item and is used in
quite a few places to get the title for a work item. It is not possible
to configure another attribute as a stand-in for the summary.
Could you elaborate why you need your own custom attribute for the summary?
