Indeed that would certainly be better. And this way, basic metadata would
still be available to basic players which only read comment_header.

Attached a new version of the patch split in 2 part. The first part simply
convert current code to new metadata API. So it still only write a few
basic tags in comment_header.
Second patch adds writing of all available metadata tags in
extended_content_header.
