==Does Bugzilla allow us to define our own priorities and levels? Do we have complete freedom to change the labels of fields and format of them, and the choice of acceptable values?==
Yes.
Yes. You can edit the values of hardcoded fields but not their label. Since Bugzilla 3.0, you can even edit the list of valid resolutions and since Bugzilla 3.2, the list of legal bug statuses and transitions among them.
However, modifying some fields, notably those related to bug progression states,
also require adjusting the program logic to compensate for the change.


There is no GUI for adding fields to Bugzilla at this time.
Moreover, Bugzilla 3.0 and newer allow you to add custom fields to Bugzilla from the UI. You can follow development of this feature in [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91037 bug 91037]
