Setting metadata is easy peasy;

metadata={k:v…}

. However, even after calling

get_event_records

to get the assets themselves, this chain of calls is…long:

my_asset.event_log_entry.dagster_event.event_specific_data.materialization.metadata_entries

Even once the metadata has been retrieved, it’s now a list rather than the dict I expected, which makes referencing a specific piece of metadata even more unwieldy (with no handy built-in function for retrieving a specific piece of metadata)
