The only thing close to metadata in XSL-FO is fo:title on fo:page-sequence, I think. We would have to write a FOP extension (similar to outlines) to bring metadata over to the PDF document. (Maybe this would also be a job for http://exslfo.sourceforge.net or XSL 1.1.)
At the moment you can only do it with Java (on the PDFRenderer instance) and only with a small subset of values (setProducer()) if you don't hack the PDF renderer.
