If you *must* include "non-obvious" metadata, such as arbitrary
variable/value pairs, then why not resort to putting them in *comments*?
Using `<!-- ... -->` is an obvious choice, and in my personal adaptation
of Markdown I'm using `//` at the beginning of lines, but really any
comments syntax from one of the major programming languages out there could be
used.
Just remember: KISS!
