> In an email from Jan 31st to users list titled 'ExecuteStreamCommand failing 
> to unzip incoming flowfiles'
> Issue is that UnpackContent doesn't capture much useful metadata.  The user 
> wants last modified date which is easily available, but also creator, 
> creation time, and owner which are less obviously avaialble at least not 
> consistently.  But there is a concept of extra fields we can extract metadata 
> from.  We have those same fields available from Tar files so it is natural 
> users would also want these.  Given their names aren't standard though I see 
> why Tar is the only one we currently say we support pulling those for.  If we 
> at least captured the metadata then flow builders can use it in their flows 
> as they wish whereas right now we dont expose that information.
