I've taken a look at the RTF spec and added support for reading RTF metadata in SVN. (There's an rtf-meta command). However, it's going to have problems with non-english characters.
I've also decided not to implement write support for the metadata as RTF is a bloody mess and I don't feel like writing a full-fledged RTF parser. You don't really need metadata support as if you transfer files to the reader via the GUI, the GUI automatically sets the title and author.
If however someone feels they really need RTF metadata write support, I encourage them to look at rtf.py and extend it.
I would appreciate some testing from those of you that use RTF. It worked fine for the few RTF files I have.
