Comment + suggestion:
1. The .opf file of a book should not/could not be changed: it contains the data to restore the calibre database in case of accident (or so I understand)
2. How those data are copied to an .epub by convert/polish->update metada is another question.
There, I would like as well to delete the user information, AFTER having employed some of my <meta name="calibre:user_metadata:#customized"... . For instance:
<meta name="calibre:user_metadata:#ordate"...content... "__value__": &quot{date}" -> <dc:date opf:event="creation">{date}</dc:date>
I suspect this would require a plug-in, but I don't know where to begin--a template to get started?
