Andy, did I capture your existing position correctly?? If we drop the
caps metadata, I'm guessing that you are ok with the code as you have
reviewed it and tested it out.? So should I just add a small patch that
removes this for now?  After that, we can discuss the addition of
capabilities to the metadata as an add-on feature with a future patch
and not hold up this larger merge request?

thanks,

greg k-h
