+ * ## Default Namespaces
+ *
+ * - `"standard"`: The "Standard" namespace. General file information that
+ * any application may need should be put in this namespace. Examples
+ * include the file's name, type, and size.
+ * - `"etag`: The [Entity Tag][gfile-etag] namespace. Currently, the only key
+ * in this namespace is "value", which contains the value of the current
+ * entity tag.
+ * - `"id"`: The "Identification" namespace. This namespace is used by file
+ * managers and applications that list directories to check for loops and
+ * to uniquely identify files.
+ * - `"access"`: The "Access" namespace. Used to check if a user has the
+ * proper privileges to access files and perform file operations. Keys in
+ * this namespace are made to be generic and easily understood, e.g. the
+ * "can_read" key is %TRUE if the current user has permission to read the
+ * file. UNIX permissions and NTFS ACLs in Windows should be mapped to
+ * these values.
+ * - `"mountable"`: The "Mountable" namespace. Includes simple boolean keys
+ * for checking if a file or path supports mount operations, e.g. mount,
+ * unmount, eject. These are used for files of type %G_FILE_TYPE_MOUNTABLE.
+ * - `"time"`: The "Time" namespace. Includes file access, changed, created
+ * times.
+ * - `"unix"`: The "Unix" namespace. Includes UNIX-specific information and
+ * may not be available for all files. Examples include the UNIX "UID",
+ * "GID", etc.
+ * - `"dos"`: The "DOS" namespace. Includes DOS-specific information and may
+ * not be available for all files. Examples include "is_system" for checking
+ * if a file is marked as a system file, and "is_archive" for checking if a
+ * file is marked as an archive file.
+ * - `"owner"`: The "Owner" namespace. Includes information about who owns a
+ * file. May not be available for all file systems. Examples include "user"
+ * for getting the user name of the file owner. This information is often
+ * mapped from some backend specific data such as a UNIX UID.
+ * - `"thumbnail"`: The "Thumbnail" namespace. Includes information about file
+ * thumbnails and their location within the file system. Examples of keys in
+ * this namespace include "path" to get the location of a thumbnail, "failed"
+ * to check if thumbnailing of the file failed, and "is-valid" to check if
+ * the thumbnail is outdated.
+ * - `"filesystem"`: The "Filesystem" namespace. Gets information about the
+ * file system where a file is located, such as its type, how much space is
+ * left available, and the overall size of the file system.
+ * - `"gvfs"`: The "GVFS" namespace. Keys in this namespace contain information
+ * about the current GVFS backend in use.
+ * - `"xattr"`: The "xattr" namespace. Gets information about extended
+ * user attributes. See attr(5). The "user." prefix of the extended user
+ * attribute name is stripped away when constructing keys in this namespace,
+ * e.g. "xattr::mime_type" for the extended attribute with the name
+ * "user.mime_type". Note that this information is only available if
+ * GLib has been built with extended attribute support.
+ * - `"xattr-sys"`: The "xattr-sys" namespace. Gets information about
+ * extended attributes which are not user-specific. See attr(5). Note
+ * that this information is only available if GLib has been built with
+ * extended attribute support.
+ * - `"selinux"`: The "SELinux" namespace. Includes information about the
+ * SELinux context of files. Note that this information is only available
+ * if GLib has been built with SELinux support.
*
* Please note that these are not all of the possible namespaces.
* More namespaces can be added from GIO modules or by individual applications.
