> Other libraries provide an API for user-specified metadata to be written to the header of an Avro Object Container File. In our case we have always done this from Python but are now implementing new projects in Rust. This is important to our use of Avro as the metadata provides critical context for data handling from container files.
> As an example in Rust, see the {{avrow}} crate which [provides this facility|https://docs.rs/avrow/0.2.1/avrow/struct.WriterBuilder.html] as a method on its {{{}WriterBuilder{}}}. Something similar for {{avro-rs}} would suit our needs.
> For a variety of reasons we are unable to use {{avrow}} in our Rust development, so we need this Improvement in Apache {{{}avro-rs{}}}.
> Thank you for your consideration!
