How?

The whole point of a media type document is to give information about
the media. Now since we have made the determination between assets and
documents (which does not make sence) I need all information in the
*document* and not so much in the asset. The asset in reality *is* the
document!

¿? What do you mean?

The document is determined by the asset props, which are stored in the
meta data.
