There is a character length limit for legal Datasets names. This limit can frustrate naming conventions in some groups which might include a lot of metadata in the dataset name. This metadata would be useful as search targets when searching for a datatset.
Alternative (and perhaps preferable) solutions:
  • Adding arbitrary metadata tags or key-value pairs to datasets:
    This metadata would need to be searchable
  • Adding the "Description" to the elements to consider during search:
    This is less structured than the suggestion above, but perhaps more easily implemented.
