I think I'm willing to call it a consensus. Thank you everyone for the
discussion.

And Frederik thank you for sending me a pull request. I've committed it
as-is. I'm happy to go with osmosis_* for the fieldnames. It's the osmosis
algorithm, and we can always add on other metadata fields in the future.
I've merged the pull request and I think I've added the right changelog,
maven, and debian glue for the new version and pushed the v1.3.0 tag to
github.

If I've missed anything, please send me a followup email.

Scott
