I'm using another application that outputs MultiMarkdown with a metadata
block in the following format:
Title: Blah blah blah
Author: Doo de Doo
Base Header Level: 1
Bibliography: Pubs.bib
Lang: en-GB
Converting this using pandoc -f markdown_mmd -t markdown --standalone we
get a metadata block in the following format:
---
author: |
Doo de Doo
baseheaderlevel: |
1
bibliography: |
Pubs.bib
lang: |
en-GB
title: |
Blah blah blah
---
Is there any way within pandoc to get rid of the vertical bar and newline
in the metadata fields so that each metadata field is on a single line like
in the input file? I know I can pipe the file to something like perl (which
has been my workaround) but was wondering if there is a way to do it only
with pandoc? (The vertical bar, or whatever it corresponds to in pandoc's
AST, causes trouble in epub output by inserting an unwanted p element
within title and author elements in the title page.)

I just pushed a fix for this.
In the mean time you could work around this by using
a Lua filter that converts MetaBlocks elements to MetaInlines.

Wouldn't one then have to check that the MetaBlock element contains only a
Para or Plain element and unpack that element into the MetaInlines element?

I didn't go into the details, but yes, exactly.
