I think there’s an issue on allowing YAML front matter on any of the format that pandoc support. You might want to search it on GitHub. (But even in that case, what do YAMl with docx means? As said, they are cat together.) I recall one complication is that What format should be allowed within the YAML, because currently markdown is allowed in the YAML block.

Adding `.INTERMEDIATE` is simple in make. And it will automatically delete it after finished with it. You can also uses a few different tricks to avoid having intermediates. e.g. `pandoc -f docx -t md ... | pandoc -f md meta.yml - ...`. The `-` will make the stdin behaves like a file (well written cli tools support this). Another option is to use bash only syntax: `pandoc -f md ... meta.yml <(pandoc -f docx -t md ...) ...`. The `<()` is similar to `$()` but acts like a file instead. If you write your script like this, the intermediate file (that this commands used behind the scene) is in the RAM and hence faster than an intermediate written to disk if you use `.INTERMEDIATE`.
