I'm fine with ditching "metadata".  The PEP will say
sys.implementation must have the required attributes and leave it at
that.  However, my preference is still for dotted access rather than a
dict.  The type doesn't really matter to me otherwise.  Immutability
isn't a big concern nor is sequence-ness.  I'll tone the type
discussion accordingly.

If anyone has strong feelings for item-access over attribute-access,
please elaborate.  I'm just not seeing it as that important and would
rather finish up the PEP as simply as possible.
