Question about this one:

Date and time when the image stops receiving new features and bug fixes

Considering that images are immutable, this is a little confusing. Wouldn't this be a completely new image anyway? Also, doesn't EOL mean also no security patches?

* `image.vendor` and `image.support.info` SHOULD also be defined
* **org.opencontainers.image.support.end-of-support** Date and time when the image stops receiving support, including new features, bug fixes, and security updates. (Date-time as defined by [RFC 3339](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3339#section-5.6).)
