What if a given plaintext metadata key didn't move with a given document.
In that case, even if you had a metadata key that said "Naked Eskimo Pics",
it wouldn't nessarily mean you had any naked eskimo pics in your node store.

We could propagate metadata keys just like normal keys; the search request
moves through the network, each node checking it's metadata keys, then the
metadata key(s) that get a positive response get sent back for the next node
in line to cache.
