Keep metadata when split and merge

Hello. I think it can be useful to keep metadata when merge PDF files. For now the resulting file lacks metadata.

What sort of metadata and what is the expected behavior when you merge, say 3 PDFs each one with metadata?

Merge metadata. Concatenate on conflict. The right way to concatenate depends the format of the field.

BTW, does PDF allow multiple metadata objects?
