No, not with the current setup with file-as-dir. It also works in Gnome/Natilus. Just tested:
mkdir test chmod +x test cd test dir metas echo 0777>rwx
In Nautilus I just typed in in the address bar /test/metas/ I could open meta-data and change with GEdit too.
I do not see that I have had to patch any programs to get this to work.
