I've changed the proposal. I will research the HEAD proposal, but I'll support ?metadata anyway (as it is extendible)

Correct, and tricky - wonder if our rest library supports that :)

Still human navigable html output our Json is not a bad thing.

        Agreed, I see the limitations - what do you think of Kevin's
        idea of using a query string and avoid a parallel tree for
        metadata?


    Isn't that what HEAD requests are for? And return the metadata in
    headers?

    HEAD /resource/path/to/directory
    > Last-Modified: <timestamp>

    HEAD /resource/path/to/directory/file.png
