Extensions to the metadata, eg. port groups, new kinds of port (assuming
they can still be float *s), additional hints etc.

The clear route is the  RDF namespacing mechanism, if someone wants to try
a new extension they can just start using it under thier own namespace,
then it can be added to the core spec if it's popular.
