-------------------------------------------------------------
As background, before my time on the project, IIUC, we used a file-format
specific keys, some formats may have had "author", others "creator", etc.
Then we had a massive contribution from Ray Gauss II which normalized
everything as much as possible to DublinCore (e.g. dcterms:created). To enable
backward compatibility at that time, we left in the old keys and added the new
"standard" keys; so at that time we had duplicate/triplicate keys for the same
information.
In 2.x, we tried to remove the old duplicate/triplicate keys and use only the
"standard" keys.
