It would be nice if part of the /api/tags response detals would include metadata such as:

type: embedding | general | code | math | vision | audio etc...
languages: [en-US, ...]

This could help with model sorting and selection.
If metadata is not available maybe add an option to mark it with metadata by the user.

A description tag would be useful too, so that when a user is poking through the list of models on the open-webui drop-down list, they can get a brief overview of what the model is good for (of course, needs support in open-webui).
