The Document formats section of the specification says the following:
All of the formats described below include the ability to add more attribute-value fields
to objects for backward-compatible format changes.
Implementers who encounter undefined attribute-value pairs in the format must include
the data when calculating hashes or verifying signatures and
must preserve the data when re-serializing.
I initially thought it's applicable only to the SIGNED fields as undefined attribute-value pairs in the format must include the data when calculating hashes or verifying signatures.
This doesn't mean that the sentence before that excludes Metadata as a possible place for additional fields.
The other maintainers agreed with me and we are going to add support for unrecognized_fields inside Metadata.
