Hi Tapio.

Check out 4.5.0-beta3!

We have changed the layout for the page types, so that only the 
"Special" section with "Folder", "Recycler" and "Menu Separator" hasn't 
got a metadata tab at all.

The types of the "Link" section will have at least "abstract", "author 
name", "author email" and "last update" available in this tab, while the 
types of the "Page" section have got the official metadata with keywords 
and description as well.

I guess this will do exactly what you proposed.

Cheers

Joey
