Making the content server read/write would violate several design decisions. I don't think it is practical if the C/S is running along with calibre. It might be possible if the C/S is running standalone.

Alternatively are there other options to remotely change metadata that I haven't thought of or that are on the ToDo list?

I had something like this on my 'feature list' for my android work. Unfortunately, it went away when my android project went away.
I could imagine a r/w client tied into the GUI but running as a separate thread. We have all the necessary bits in place to prevent simultaneous update. What I am not sure if is whether GUI data would be refreshed. There is a notification mechanism, but I have never used it.
Edit: Typical... Kovid beat me to it.
