I believe that it will be commonplace to have a pointer to external
description... a MARC record, an FGDC record, whatever... in the META
section.
I also believe that it will be useful to have a container that is held
within the object itself that affords the opportunity for a variety of
descriptive schemes. It should be encapsulated, splatter-proof (so as
not to be a burden to the user). It should be flexible so that we can
experiment. It should have a scheme name, so my_webwalker can look at
it and recognize it and your_webwalker can ignore it if so desired.
