Will be very helpful if you can add "how to test"

You can't actually "preview" metainfo files in the same way as AppData

useful. If you're technically savvy, you can install
appstream-builder, generate some metadata, and then look at the logs,
but the easier way is just to look at my daily rebuilds of rawhide:
