The ability to ask for (and upload) "related" media sounds so much like WebFinger (rfc7033)'s JSON Resource Descriptors (JRD's).

'Hey-- this url? Do you have any media related to it?'

For a number of reasons this might not have been a good choice for OCI:

- Repositories in the registry are namespaced under /v2/<name>/...

- Legacy clients already support parsing OCI manifests (vs. WebFinger JSON)
