Editing the metadata is not currently possible.

Possibly this could be done with a little python I guess. Currently
there is no export option though this would not be hard to add.

I have a data cataloguing plugin in the works that scans your disk for
GIS files, builds a catalog, lets you categorise files and then lets
you add files to the project. It will be a month or so before its
ready to use and probably wont do everything you want in its first
version. I'll let you know when its ready for testing.
