[webvtt] Question about the definition for metadata header

alastor0325 has just created a new issue for 
https://github.com/w3c/webvtt:

== Question about the definition for metadata header ==
https://w3c.github.io/webvtt/#webvtt-metadata-header

> A WebVTT metadata header name and a WebVTT metadata header value 
each consist of any sequence of one or more characters other than 
U+000A LINE FEED (LF) characters and U+000D CARRIAGE RETURN (CR) 
characters

If the header name and the header value can contain any characters 
other than LF and CR, that means the ":" can be contained in theses 
property.

If so, this kind of description would be allowed for metadata header, 
eg: foo:foo:foo:foo:foo:foo:foo. However, how can we know which colon 
is used for separate name and value? Maybe we should not allow 
containing colon in both metadata name and value.

Thanks!
