at least a top-level metadata property can be explicitly defined in a .json.schema[0] and formalized, rather than being some kind of ad-hoc pre-processor step you have to evaluate before actually using the JSON data. I didn't even know about that approach before I read your comment but it instantly makes more sense to me in terms of maintainability and interoperability.
