Its no hassle to deal with meta data at all. If you try to send a file with it, it gets stripped by the internet if its not handled properly. and yes it is a huge hassle.

You know you'll get flamed. I encourage that people find their favorite features, but unfortunately I'd hate to see metadata back. It's such a hassle to developers (which need to strip files of metadata before transferring to another filesystem or computer) and users (who send files that receivers can't open). It is just simpler like it is now for file interchange.

Is it such a hassle to keep file extensions?
