> Many file formats have optional metadata entries that result in a lot of {{if (value == null)}} statements around {{metadata.set(...)}} calls. It would be more convenient if the {{set}} method explicitly allowed a {{null}} value and that a call like {{metadata.set(name, null)}} was essentially equivalent to a {{metadata.remove(name)}} call.
