I very much suspect it would be non-trivial! The current capability uses the interface that iTunes exposes for handling media (of which ePub books is one type). This exposes a set of attributes that can be set for the media, and the ebook metadata is mapped onto these. The Kindle app uses a different file transfer facility, and that has no concept of the attributes that can be set.
In fact if any such development were ever done I see no reason why it should be specific to a particular app as the Transfer of files to/from an app is a generic iTunes capability, and would sensibly be treated as more closely aligned with the "Connect to Folder" facility in Calibre. Having said that, I have no idea if iTunes exposes this file transfer capability in any useful manner.
