For the META.yml spec, should anything not expressly allowed be

If so, then any extension like this has to be explicitly added to the
spec. On the positive side, it doesn't leave ambiguity for tools that
work with META.yml.
Alternatively, if anything not expressly forbidden is allowed, then
it's easy to add extensions, but hard to predict what various tools
will do with it now or in the future
I have always thought of it as the latter. Certainly trying to
forbid Perl programmers from *anything* is difficult. =)
