#167 closed enhancement (later)

The definition of psMetadataItemPrint isn't very useful

Description

The SDRS currently specifies that psMetadataItemPrint() must be passed a format; unfortunately
specifying this format requires that the caller knows the type of the item --- thus circumventing
much of the value of the function.

I propose that if the format is NULL then a suitable representation of the item be printed
(for complex types this could be e.g. "[JPG:%p]"). It would never be an
error to call psMetadataItemPrint() for any item (also a change from the current SDRS)
