    Are we able to store our own data in the ContentCatalogDataEntry extraData or is there some other way for including user data into the content catalog? I would like to have more information available about the addressables available in a ResourceProvider prior to requiring a complete load.

    Possibly there is some existing functionality like this I'm not seeing in the docs? If not is this on the roadmap or will it be possible to subclass any of the Addressable classes and add things like this, encrypted data, etc.?

    Most of what you're asking for is possible, but not yet fully explored or doc'd. We are working on sample projects (which will post here: https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/Addressables-Sample) and intend to have some custom provider or custom data ones up there at some point.
