but that's exactly what the padding is for, to keep from having to overwrite the whole file. unless you originally encoded with no padding, or the padding was too small, there should be no problem. (also, you don't need to add padding to add metadata; adding padding, then adding metadata, then removing padding does the same thing but takes 3 times as long as just adding metadata to a file with no padding.) metadata is at the front of the stream because if a source is decoding FLAC and can't seek the input, it can still get data about the stream before decoding starts.
