Alejandro Abdelnur commented on HADOOP-10430:
---------------------------------------------

I would prefer to leave that to the apps using the label to decide how they 
encode multiple information, else we will have to deal with escaping, how to 
escape will depend on what are valid values, and different apps may have 
different rules to define valid values. 

Thoughts?

> KeyProvider Metadata should have an optional label, there should be a method 
> to retrieve the metadata from all keys

> Being able to attach an optional label (and show it when displaying metadata) 
> will enable giving some context on the keys.
