# What

As we look to the future, one very useful way to use Graphsync is to discover the CIDs that make up a response to a selector query, but use another protocol (i.e. Bitswap likely) to actually get the data.

With this in mind, we would introduce a new Request type to the Graphsync message: a "Metadata" request type.
