There's no code to actually read/write such metadata though. Also I'm
not exactly sure what the <ref> is. Maybe just a filename used to store
the data.
LOL, so I'm not the only one who designs like that. I think of it like
sculpting: Throw some clay on the table and then scrape away anything
that's not part of my objective. It's the right-brain side of programming.
(And the hardest part.)
