Glance metadata gets used for billing tags, among things, that we
would like to stay as attached to a volume as possible, as another
example. Windows images use this - which is why cinder copies all of
the glance metadata in the first place, rather than just a bootable
flag.

Apparently protected properties (glance metadata items that are
immutable once set) won't cause a problem here since we will be
setting them on upload, which is allowed.
