That seems good to me.

@simonw Other than metadata, the biggest item on wishlist for the salaries project was the ability to reorder by column. Of course, that could be done with a custom SQL query, but we didn't want to have to reimplement all the nav/pagination stuff from scratch.

@carolinp, feel free to add your thoughts.

It would be nice to also allow arbitrary keys (maybe under a parent key called params or something to prevent conflicts). For our datasette project, we just have a bunch of dictionaries defined in the base template for things like site URL and column humanized names: https://github.com/baltimore-sun-data/salaries-datasette/blob/master/templates/base.html It would be cleaner if this were in the metadata.json.

I think the templates themselves should be able to indicate if they want the inherited values or not. That way we could support arbitrary key/values and avoid the application code having special knowledge of license_url etc.

Yes, you could have metadata that works like metadata does currently and inherited_metadata that works with inheritance.

Yes. I think the simplest implementation is to change lines like

python metadata = self.ds.metadata.get('databases', {}).get(name, {})

to

python metadata = { **self.ds.metadata, **self.ds.metadata.get('databases', {}).get(name, {}), }

so that specified inner values overwrite outer values, but only if they exist.
