Just to be clear, the proposal doesn't change anything about 
PropertyCollectors work. This would simply continue to work as it is 
working right now, until somebody makes a proposal to change it to 
something else!

These two things have a completely different function. The schema 
defines the structure of the index.

Property Collectors are customisable mechanisms that provides (some of 
the) values of the index per granule, taking information from the file 
and/or the coverage metadata.

The schema creation includes attributes that are not collected with a 
PropertyCollector (such as location), while one Propery Collector can 
potentially supply multiple attribute values.

Prop already exists in the current API.

You do know that Props are configuration properties, nothing to do with 
features?
