Any plans on supporting the metadata API?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

This is a great library.  Any plans on supporting the metadata API?

I tried to hack it up myself, but the trick is that the metadata WSDL does not 
define login/logout methods, so you have to connect with either the partner or 
enterprise WSDL.  I would like to avoid merging the login/logout definitions.  
Instead, I tried to login with the partner WSDL, then change the WSDL to 
metadata WSDL, buy overwriting the underlying Client object, but it didn't 
work. 

sf = SforceBaseClient(parterWsdlFile)    
result = sf.login(username, password, sectoken)
if '://' not in metaWsdlFile:
  if os.path.isfile(metaWsdlFile):
    metaWsdl = 'file://' + os.path.abspath(metaWsdlFile)
sf._sforce = Client(metaWsdl)
sf._sforce.set_options(location = result.metadataServerUrl)

header = sf.generateHeader('SessionHeader')
header.sessionId = result['sessionId']
sf.setSessionHeader(header)
sf._sessionId = result['sessionId']
