This feature was actually started some time ago ( https://github.com/mayan-edms/mayan-edms/blob/master/mayan/apps/sources/models.py#L194) but is not yet enabled because it depends on some scheduling update that have not made it into the master branch.
As for metadata, I came up with some ideas but none are implemented. One was to let users set default metadata values as well as document type for each watch folder. Another idea was when a document is being imported from a watch folder to look for a file with the same name but with the .metadata extension. No design decision has been reached yet so any ideas are welcomed.
