Well then Dublin Core or whatever should be treated as a different kind
of metadata, with a field pointing to the CHK of the data itself, or
even encourage people to distribute two CHKs pointing to the Dublin Core
stuff and the metadata. 

What it should *NOT* do is be treated as a *replacement* for the current
metadata mechanism which is working fine thanks very much.
