From what I remember from previous experiences, OMF/AAF strips metadata from the original audio files if it is exported as an embedded OMF/AAF. I think if it is exported as a LINKED OMF, it will just reference the original audio. OMF's are regularly delivered to us as embedded, so i'm guessing either editors like this so there is one clean file to send, or maybe FCP doesn't export LINKED OMF/AAF's... I have no clue. I'm just a sound man.

I'd love to find out for sure so that if/when this FR gets implemented, I can send the editor a spec sheet for deliverables requirements. (i.e. if working in FCPX/7, send an XML, if anything else, LINKED OMF, and don't touch anything else).
