it would be very nice if the twitter, slack, and other social media could make rich cards when people post a link to a datasette instance

I really like this idea. I was thinking it might make a good plugin, but there's not a great mechanism for plugins to inject extra <head> content at the moment - plus this actually feels like a reasonable feature for Datasette core itself.

Datasette could do a pretty good job of this by default, using twitter:card and og:url tags - like on https://til.simonwillison.net/jq/extracting-objects-recursively

I could also provide a mechanism to customize these - in particular to add images of some sort.

It feels like something that should tie in to the metadata mechanism.
