I'm happy with this direction, but there are still a couple of things we need to discuss:

1) Do we use the common distro names for os_distro or the (previously-suggested) domain names (org.ubuntu, com.microsoft)?

I'm in favor of common names.

2) Do we define enums for these fields or leave them as open-ended strings?

I'm in favor of no enums and suggesting usage for known values (ubuntu instead of ubuntu-server, etc).
