Standards around bridging between /usr/lib/os-release and labels/annotations?

[cgwalters]

Has there been any discussion on standard bridging between the os-release file and standardized labels/annotation names?

I tried searching issues/PRs here and didn't see anything. This seems like an obvious thing to want. I think to start at least the ID and ID_LIKE keys.

cc @vbatts just because I know you 😄

nothing official. I've heard some tools pull from os-release for the label/annotations.
It seems like a good and fine pattern. Not sure about mandating such.

[cgwalters]

Yeah agree we can't mandate. But how about adding org.opencontainers.osrelease.id as a start which is just the value of ID from /usr/lib/os-release?

@cgwalters do you have links to places where projects are already doing similar? (maybe not in the org.opencontainers.* prefix, but still)
