Collection-level metadata

Hi,

I'm wondering if some kind soul would be willing to point me to
some working code that shows how to add name-value metadata at
a collection level. A few weeks ago I asked Vadim for help and
he was gracious enough to answer, but I was unfortunately unable
to get it working and I hate to lean on him once more. It would
probably help more than just me, as I'm guessing there may be a
general level of confusion about how to do this (based on the
variety of different ways I was able to *try* to do this within
the code base). This could become part of our documentation on
the issue.

Thanks very much for any help,

Murray
