I've not followed this thread completly, but I'd rather tend to extend 
existing infrastructure than introducing complexity with new levels of 
metadata (like manifest comments or the like) - if this is really 
needed. Why shouldn't it be possible to implement hide/read-only 
settings for file attributes? These would just be flags which would be 
introduced and honored in a couple of places.
