It feels like we should namespace the kernel spec metadata so items can have other metadata too. For example, metadata: {kernel: spec.metadata} or something.

Perhaps the default implementation should display this metadata somewhere? It feels a bit weird to include metadata without using it anywhere. Presumably you have an overridden launcher that actually is using the metadata?
