Can we encode "New entities metadata" as a metadata of the ontology?

I just re-discover the feature of Protégé: Settings>New entities metadata. This is very useful to have this and I will suggest an extension in another issue.

This feature request is about encoding the information too in the metadata of the Ontology as an annotation property of the owl:Ontology object. By chance (not really in fact!) MOD propose a property for these 2 aspects: https://w3id.org/mod#authorProperty https://w3id.org/mod#createdProperty

See respectively here and there.

These properties are super useful when someone like to develop something based on multiple ontologies... those metadata properties inform about the means use to encode the content of the ontology. For instance in AgroPortal we use createdProperty to decide which property to use to order classes by date of creation in the new UI illustrated here (on a SKOS resource, but works also for OWL): Capture d’écran 2023-04-07 à 14 15 35
