Description
In an email from Jan 31st to users list titled 'ExecuteStreamCommand failing to unzip incoming flowfiles'
Issue is that UnpackContent doesn't capture much useful metadata. The user wants last modified date which is easily available, but also creator, creation time, and owner which are less obviously avaialble at least not consistently. But there is a concept of extra fields we can extract metadata from. We have those same fields available from Tar files so it is natural users would also want these. Given their names aren't standard though I see why Tar is the only one we currently say we support pulling those for. If we at least captured the metadata we can then flow builders can use it in their flows as they wish whereas right now we dont expose that information.
