@Fei Long: if we put the image owner in the location metadata, then we'll need to have some concept of "system location metadata" so that a user can't modify the owner. I think I'd prefer to make image locations unique so that only one image record can have a particular location. Then we wouldn't need the owner metadata, because the image owner would also own that location.

Key question: is there a solid use-case requiring multiple images to refer to the same image data location? (There are a few mentioned in the spec, but I don't see them as being use cases that absolutely *must* be satisfied, I think we would be OK disallowing them.)
