 > Personally I think there should the a wp_termmeta table (term_id,
 term_meta, term_value) which works the same way as the postmeta. This
 would handle scalability, keep it conventional and well organized. The
 saving part would simply use update_term_meta() and the deleting part
 would then be automated just like the post works with custom metas.

 Hey TweetyThierry,

 as this would be a game-changing ticket, it would require a blessed task
 team working on it during a cycle. This ticket was closed three years ago;
 as has been stated elsewhere, trac is a good place for working out
 implementation, not waiting around for someone to name a brilliant
 paradigm-shifting API.

 If you'd like to be involved (or anyone else) I'd suggest you to join the
 [http://make.wordpress.org/core/tag/options-meta/ metadata UI API team]'s
 next dev chat, as @juliobox suggests.
