hidden versus discoverable meta-data

aloha!

the term "hidden meta-data" is pejorative, and not an accurate descripton
of attributes such as @summary -- rather than use the term "hidden 
meta-data" i propose a terminology switch to "discoverable meta-data", 
which means it doesn't matter if it is displayed visually or not, but 
in a manner in which the user can readily access it in accordance with 
that user's individual preferences
