ad discoleo:
Thanks for the fast feedback.
I am not sure, if I understand your concern correctly.
The metadata itself is not touched by actions cut/copy/paste of a certain entity
having metadata regardless, if the action is performed via the user interface or
the UNO-API. It is the metadata reference of the entities, which is affected by
these actions.
Think of the following text document:
Text document containing two paragraphs, each having metadata. The paragraphs
refer to its metadata via a metadata reference - mainly value of ODF property
xml:id.
Action 1: When the user cuts the first paragraph, the metadata are still in the
RDF/RDFa repository and be accessed. But no entity of the text document no
longer referencing this metadata.
Action 2: The first paragraph is copied and pasted as a new third paragraph. The
newly inserted third paragraph will lose its metadata reference, because the
referenced metadata is already referenced by the first paragraph.
Action 3: The first paragraph is cut and pasted as the new third paragraph. The
newly inserted third paragraph will keep its metadata reference and still has
metadata, because this metadata is still in the RDF/RDFa repository of the text
document.
Action 4: The first paragraph is copied and pasted as the first paragraph into a
newly created text document. The newly inserted first paragraph in the new text
document will have a metadata reference, but this metadata reference can not be
resolved inside the new text document, because the RDF/RDFa repository of the
new text document does not contain any metadata.
I hope this explanation resolves your concerns.
BTW, what we need to decide is what happens to metadata, which are no longer
referenced (e.g. after action 1), when the text document is saved. Should the
created ODF still contain such metadata or does the created ODF only contains
metadata, which are referenced by a certain entity of the ODF? What is your
opinion?
What do you mean by "the major use of metadata is in reusing content"?
