Comment (by sc0ttkclark):

 Further steps for me are to ensure we have additional tests that cover
 what we want for `register_meta()`.

 I wonder why we need data_type immediately though if schema could end up
 being used in the future? What in core needs data_type and/or schema
 besides REST API and Fields API (both future patches)?

 You can pass any args you want into `register_meta` so we don't have to be
 stuck with anything here yet while things are still ironed out in the
 '''implementations''' of the proposed new argument(s).
