Mac OS "spotlight" indexes metadata

Developers were given a glimpse of the next version of the Macintosh
OS at the recent Apple conference in San Francisco.  Most interesting
is the search feature called Spotlight.  Spotlight runs in the
background, building indexes of your files, so searches happen very
quickly.

The most interesting feature of Spotlight is its ability to
automatically index file metadata. If this includes the metadata in
Broadcast WAV (BWF) format, Spotlight will make it much easier to
manage a library of sound recordings. 

I haven't owned a Macintosh in more than 15 years.  But it's looking
like my next computer may be a Mac.
