Sometimes a piece of data that is not directly related to layer rendering or export is need by other
other Octopus users.
Solution
Add layer.meta objects that would gather everything that's considerer meta or auxiliary. Some of
the metadata might even be something that can be computed from actual layer data, however, for
simplicity reasons it's beneficial to encode those within meta object.
Tasks
define content of metadata, allow for extensibility and proprietary source data
