I think Andreas described it well :-)
the format supports it, we should have tools that fill in this
metadata in the way you describe into the media object itself. then
it can be parsed and used. it isn't being used because at the moment
no one
1. knows about it
2. realises its value
once a system reads it, people will learn to use it. Bit like Dublin
Core metadata in your html, which most blog CMS now seem to auto
generate, but before then, not a lot of us actually added this to our
pages. But it helps with a lot of stuff.
