I think that the best thing to do is use RDF for metadata, and use Turtle to save in-page RDF.

RDF is _the_ Internet metadata format. Turtle is the Wikitext of RDF: a plain, easy way to do metadata markup that anyone can learn in a few minutes.
I plan on incorporating Turtle markup into MediaWiki 1.5.x, probably as part of a larger overhaul of the RDF generation modules to use RAP (the RDF API for PHP).
