[Dbix-class] Column Metadata

Hi,

Right now if I stuff extra things into the column
metadata info like so:

__PACKAGE__->add_columns(
  "thumbnail_path",
  {
	data_type => "VARCHAR", 
	default_value => "",
	is_nullable => 0, 
	size => 255,
	label => "Thumbnail Path",
	field_type=>"Textfield",
 },

I can retrieve that via the result_source column info
method.  My question is do people think me putting my
metadata here is a bad idea, in the sense that in some
future revision of DBIx the metadata will have some
sort of enforcement and won't support my arbitrary key
values anymore?

Thanks!


John
