Research direction

Start by inspecting the current metadata file and the model files that consume it, then review how Julia macros could represent the same metadata. The issue needs a settled design and an explicit list of metadata to migrate before implementation can be considered done.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

This needs to be thought further, but one idea to have macro in the model file ? (AD, JuMP ?)
