> A RequestHandlerSource (aka a forwarded service) needs methods to query static metadata, such as:
> 1) The presence or absence of ordering guarantees across the total path
> 2) Security information about the total path (encryption strength for example)
> 3) Path information (like a traceroute, for cost as well as diagnostic information; could include link cost, transport type & version, etc)
> 4) Possibly authentication information about the total path
> It should be possible to add new metadata types later on without interfering with backwards compatibility.  So lack of a given metadata type must be considered to be possibly indicative of an older version along the path.
