Classification:feature Reproducible:n/a
 
Summary:
The built in camera app records the location in the photos, i assume because EXIF data has a place for it, and because location is available with an iOS device.

But Core Motion is also available, and barring LIDAR or some other distance-computing hardware, having the Euler angles and compass direction -- basically everything that a CMCoreMotion object contains -- would allow developers to do extraordinary things, even beyond distance-estimates

Steps to Reproduce:
n/a

Expected Results:
CoreMotion should be stored and surfaced in Photos Kit

Actual Results:
Only location data is stored.

Version:
iOS 8.x, iOS 9 betas

Notes:
