We are writing metadata to CSV file headers in YAML form (via the pycsvy package) which means we could potentially include the whole measure script in there as a record. An alternative would be to just include the filepath, but I think it would be better to just have the whole script as files can be deleted/edited etc.

The downside of this would be that the header would no longer be a fixed number of lines, so users wanting to ignore the metadata for their data processing woudn't be able to rely on this. You can skip over the header by looking for the second line of ---s though.
