So it doesn't really retain the raw bytes of the metadata/value from which it was constructed. It does retain the metadata and value bytes in case of objects/lists, but that case isn't working now anyway. One way would be to operate on metadata/value byte slices directly, even for the `get_path` operation. That way, we'll be left with a `value` byte slice that we can copy directly. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
