Review Comment:
   That was my preference too, and I advocated for it in our community 
discussion but this is what we settled on. Our current v4 proposal specifically 
uses `MANIFEST_DV` as a separate content type that references manifests via the 
referenced_file field. We can certainly change it and want to get take from 
others.
