> Agree. In MinIO (disclaimer: I work there) we added a "secret" parameter (metadata=true) to include metadata and tags in listings if the user has the appropriate permissions. Of course it being an extension it is not really something that you can reliably use. But rclone can of course always try it and use it if available :)

Is this "secret" parameter documented somewhere? Sounds very useful :-) Rclone knows when it is talking to Minio so we could easily wedge that in.

> My personal biggest complaint is that there isn't a `HeadObjectVersions` that returns version information for a single object. `ListObjectVersions` is always going to be a "cluster-wide" operation, since you cannot know if the given prefix is actually a prefix or an object key

Yes that is annoying having to do a List just to figure out which object Version is being referred to. (Rclone has this problem when using --s3-list-version).
