My personal use case does not evolve around the metadata that is usually present in the file itself. I'm aware that this exists and that Plex pulls information from there too (see the footnote[1] in the section about Plex). I don't think it makes sense to try and mirror all the metadata in the file metadata, but in the spirit of being configurable and for portability reasons it would make sense.

I planned for adding a provider that would read certain metadata from the file (just like any other tool) as well as possibly also pushing edits back if wanted. Not sure when I get around to that.
