Comment (by nacin):

 The documentation changes definitely make sense. The return value for
 add_metadata() came in [18445] specifically so add_meta() could return the
 meta ID. Not sure if there's any need though for update_metadata() to
 bother to return the meta ID. Even more so, not sure if there's any need
 for the add_*_meta() functions to return the meta ID, though that's
 probably been out in the wild long enough to be considered functionality.
