Reinstate Metadata Cleaner

I haven’t looked into the topic deeply enough but I hope there is[1] a way to have some CLI running on a given subset of drectories and cleaning any kind of metadata on file change.

Hence, if you do have a photo downloaded going to your Downloads directory, it is automatically processed by some CLI and stripped of everything. Sounds like a basic tool for a NAS OS.

I could see some drawbacks to it too of course (for example loosing precious data for a souvenir photo) hence why should be selective only.
