Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing how Dataverse currently applies metadata embargos, then clarify the intended distinction between abstract and other metadata with the requester. Done means the selected abstract can be embargoed while the remaining metadata stays available, with behavior verified by appropriate tests.
