Has anyone considered making/using relays that only maintain metadata? Just the core user info, follow list, relays, etc. Also making it easy to clone the relay and attempt to maintain this data for as much of the global network as possible.

Were this to be done, clients could go to these meta-relays first when loading up a user, and the overall user experience could probably be improved some.

Or perhaps I'm just out of date and this has already been considered.
