Documentation:
The Metadata element provides a substitution group head for metadata. Like the substitution group head for augmentations, this allows selection of metadata to be decided late in message creation, rather than at schema authoring time. This element may also be used to provide a single point in a container where all metadata for a message may be deposited.
