I think use cases for the meta-data are ideal.

• Email text from Patrice Dumas

It would be practical to know about files owned by packages, to verify conflicts. Know about requires and provides, including virtual ones. And of course package name and versions. Providing everything that repoquery provides would be nice, in fact. If repoquery is there it is because it is practical. It can be done through a web interface like in rpmfind which does about the same.
