We've lost some metadata? 2.3.x

[gAlleb]

Just noticed, that new 2.3.x is missing on_air_timestamp and on_air metadata. Or am I wrong?

Just tested with RR both on opam and Alpine. Can't get values of that fields.

Since #4039, but I don't know why.

True, maybe convert into issue cause on_air is crucial for some nowplaying api implementations :)

Hi all.

I cleaned up the request imeplemtation as part of 2.3.x. That code was super old and wasn't reflecting how we do things now.

In particular, on_air was a proper state of requests, beside idle, resolving, resolved and destroyed. This complicated the code a lot and did not reflect on the fact that a request can be used by multiple sources.

I understand the need to track what's on air at all time. I'll follow-up with some suggestions for adding it back in the feature/bug report.
