• public void notify (ParamSpec pspec, bool shadow)
  notify is called by subclasses when the value of a metadata variable changes.
• public void register (string local_name, string name, ValueTransform transform)
• public virtual void register_hook (string file_module_name, uint flags)

• public virtual void set_value (string name, Value value)
  Set the specified metadata value.
• public void set_warning (string warning)
  Set the warning of nature of content.
• public Type typeof_value (string name)
  Get the declared type of the value in the MetadataStore.

Signals:

• public signal void changed (ParamSpec pspec)
  `changed` is emitted when a metadata value is changed.
• public signal bool generate_value (ParamSpec pspec, ref Value value)
  If a signal handler is connected to `generate_value ` a signal is emitted when the file module accesses a value using gegl_metadata_get_value.
• public signal void mapped (string file_module, bool exclude_unmapped)
  `mapped` is emitted after a file module registers a mapping and before other processing takes place.
• public signal bool parse_value (ParamSpec pspec, ref Value value)
  If a signal handler is connected to `parse_value ` a signal is emitted when the file module accesses a value using gegl_metadata_set_value.
• public signal void unmapped (string file_module, string local_name)
  `unmapped` is emitted when a file module tries to look up an unmapped metadata name.
