The verification hash is composed of hash_sum(content_hash + metadata_hash + signature_hash + witness_hash). With metadata_hash defined as domain_id + time_stamp + previous_verification_hash. It doesn't make sense to group those 3 as the metadata of a revision, whereas a signature, or a witness detail of a revision could also be considered as metadata as well.

The term "metadata" should be used to describe all of them.

The term will be made obsolete in inblockio/aqua-verifier-js#28.
