All this information is already present in the word list.

  . The minimum values can be found by scanning the whole word list.

  . The writing direction can be easily derived from the
    directionality of the first non-comment entry, since the first
    character of each entry is certainly part of the target script,
    thus implicitly defining the direction.

I think you save time and work if you omit the definition of Metadata.
If really necessary, this could be added in a later version.
