We did exactly this when designing StatleyDB. We realized there are a set of metadata fields[0] that almost everyone needs when modeling data. Our approach takes this a step further in that we always track these fields transparently so if you forget to add them to your schema initially for any reason, that's okay, you can always add them later!
