    Description

      I've just chased down some big challenges with Meteor File Collection which uses GridFS. Turns out that both the author and I didn't realize that arbitrary data could be added at the top level of the schema. I later spotted that fact in your earlier text, but perhaps the following change in the metadata description will help Devs spot this capability a bit better:

      Recommend Changing:

      files.metadata
      Optional. Any additional information you want to store.

      To:

      files.metadata
      Optional. Any additional information you want to store. Though you may also create your own arbitrary fields at the level above this.
