The metadata gets updated every time you export the ePub from the library, so if you do a Save to disk or a Send to device the metadata is updated during the export process. Also if you just want the metadata of the in-library ePub updated you can use the Modify ePub plugin.

Live and learn. Beside the stated metadata typo why else would you want to reconvert a book you just spent time editing to look as you wish it to look?

Anything is possible. The question is if you can convince Kovid it is a good idea and if there is someone to do the programming to create the patch required. You can submit an enhancement request by following
these instructions.
Good Reading.
