Comment (by jeremyfelt):

 `add_metadata()` does not currently support an `$object_subtype`
 parameter. A new style sanitize filter will not be triggered because
 `add_metadata()` calls `sanitize_meta()` without the object subtype as
 well. We need to add subtype into this part of the process.
 [attachment:35658.39.diff] does this, though 6 parameters on `add_meta()`
 seems like it's stretching it. :/
