I guess this should be mostly a matter of moving the DES metadata reporting 
part away from their #ifdef ESRI_BUILD , testing that this works, adding test 
and adding documentation. I got confirmation that this is no longer used by 
Esri, so we could potentially change naming / behaviour if needed.
