By the way, I would suggest not use markdown as the intermediate format. You can convert both (the metadata and docx) to native first and cat them together. A caveat is that the YAML in native would have a `[]` line in the end (because it has an empty body), so you’d want to remove it by `head -n -1`.

The reason is that you want to avoid the round trip that pandoc is doing internally (first native to md, then md to native). And since pandoc isn’t exactly idempotent, this not only make it faster, but also safe.
