Description

Source open question from `content/research/nextflow-workflow-io-semantics.md`:

> Do workflow output `index` files deserve a target-side Galaxy pattern for preserving sample metadata beside published datasets?

Context:
- Modern Nextflow workflow outputs can write CSV, JSON, or YAML index files that preserve channel value structure.
- Galaxy translations may need an equivalent metadata sidecar/report pattern for sample labels and published dataset grouping.
- The decision affects output interface design and Galaxy workflow testability notes.

Related: #168, #174.
