Perhaps. A wise man once advised me that, when it comes to software, focus first on the here and now; tomorrows problems will come soon enough. In any case it seems to me that appending metadata events is no more expensive than appending any other kind of event; and that UPDATING metadata is the more expensive of the options.

The current situation is that you can spam relays and download a full DB dump trice a minute without penalty. Lets hope it does not stay like that for long.

nips for events consider kind-0 replaceable, so relays will only give you one per pubkey.
