   @yabola yep that would be great if you want to take a stab!  I haven't looked at the details yet, so @flyrain may help on that.  I was initially thinking it may be cleaner to use a new function, but if it's easier to re-use registerTable than that may be ok too. 
   
   On the user-facing side, I was just thinking to add an error check (that may be overriden), that either the new metadata passed in is in the previousFiles() of the old one, or vice-versa.
