Right, specifically, we've seen developer interest in both priority
(as some nebulous thing) and in timestamps.
I think we could reasonably have a concept of some metadata container
element which has some stuff in - which the pubsub service and
subscribers may or may not do things with. The metadata container
element can be independent of the payload.
I don't know where this might fit, but I'd assume a pubsub service
would have to support metadata, and a subscriber would have to
request it as a subscription option.
