-1. Reading the metadata files. The purpose of this step is to parse
-   each metadata file associated with the image file and supply it as
-   a (in-memory) XML tree. This tree is given to a
-   ImageMetadataInterface (IMI) that will look for needed
-   information. The parsing is be done by different classes,
-   depending on the file format. They can all derive from the base
-   class MetadataSupplierInterface. The three suppliers are:
-   * GDALImageIO will use GDALDataset::GetMetadata() to extract
-     'key=value' pairs and format them into a XML tree.
-   * XMLMetadataSupplier uses GDAL's XML parsing mechanism
-     ("ReadXMLToList" method from the "GDALMDReaderBase" class) to
-     convert the XML file into a GDAL ListString, which is a
-     succession of 'key=value' pairs.
-   * TextMetadataSupplier tries to parse 'key=value' pairs.  
-   
-   Those classes all implement the method *GetMetadataValue* which
-   returns the value of the metadata from a given key. The base class
-   also implements the methods *GetAs* and *GetAsVector* which are
-   used by the IMI.

    *parse* method will pick the metadata from the ImageIO and fill an
-   *ImageMetadata* object. This step consists in finding the relevant
-   metadata in the different Metadata Suppliers and using the *Add()*

+-  Some metadata are not read by GDAL. To parse those metadata, the
+   IMI can call other suppliers, depending on the file format:
+   * to parse XML files, XMLMetadataSupplier uses GDAL's XML parsing
+     mechanism ("ReadXMLToList" method from the "GDALMDReaderBase"
+     class) to convert the XML file into a GDAL ListString, which is a
+     succession of 'key=value' pairs.

+     'key=value' pairs.

+	Other suppliers can be added if needed. Those classes (including
+   GDALImageIO) all implement the method *GetMetadataValue* which
+   returns the value of the metadata from a given key. The base class
+   also implements the methods *GetAs* and *GetAsVector* which are
+   used by the IMI.
 
+-  The IMI finds the relevant metadata in the different Metadata
+   Suppliers and use the *Add()* method of the *ImageMetadata* object
+   to store the metadata.  If the parsing returns successfully, the
+   generated ImageMetadata is given to the *ImageCommon* that
+   propagate through the pipeline.
