I think this proposal is a bit out of scope given the current focus of OpenFeature. I can see how this could be valuable but primarily for testing and CI processes. In my opinion, this shouldn't be included in the SDKs, at least not at this time.
I agree with @beeme1mr that this feels out of scope for now, but @Kavindu-Dodan I would love to understand the use case more.
What would you imagine an OF consumer (an Application Author or an Application Integrator, or some other persona) using this capability for, if we built it?
Thanks for the feedback @beeme1mr & @moredip . Yes I want to think more about "how" different entities can benefit from flag metadata. I will think more about this and come back if I see better use cases than merely using it for testing and validations.
This PR
Proposes to introduce flag metadata exposure to the application layer.
With flag metadata such as key, flag type, application developers get the ability to build various validations, and tools on-top of already existing APIs.
