Hi Tom,

if you allow me a user-question here:

Such a feature would be very much appreciated. Would you think of shipping a 
CSW server (e.g. pyCSW) with a QGIS installation / make that a dependency for a 
plugin or do you think of an interface to Metadata catlogue software like (from 
the group of OSGeo tools) GeoNetwork. The latter - which probably would be 
comparable with this solution in the proprietary world: 
https://www.geocat.net/bridge/ - would be nice, because it would a) improve 
interoperability between OSGeo projects, and b) help in central metadata 
management of an organisation (while the former is probably mor beneficial for 
smaler companies or single users which do not operate something like 
GeoNetwork)!
Otherwise, a way to get metadata from QGIS published (e.g. in GeoNetwork), 
would be XML-import...

Cheers
Stefan
