Yes it would be great to see simple solutions to the overall issue you've brought up, like say a "Dot" being purely an interface element. I've requested this in the past.
But also being able to easily copy camera values into metadata would be nice, or ideally like you say I would really want to just have metadata in the camera stream, grabbed form the Camera knobs if necessary. On a general level, if it can be done, how do you copy a knob value into a metadata key? It doesn't seem to resolve expressions in the "value" field.
