 > But, I think this should be specified by the library, with a header like
 "Provides: metabox". Besides providing a stable name for the library, it
 could also signal that it's safe to auto-activate.

 This would be nice because it would require ''"officially"'' delineating a
 list of ''"features"'' that a plugin could add.  That could then be used
 as metadata on WordPress.org plugin search as well as other locations.
