Closing brace in a form field leads to bad parsing

Inserting a closing brace in a form field make the metadata parsing wrong. I am currently using the following patch on Meta.pm:

Test case

Add an '}' is a text field.

It looks like you are referring to the }% string that terminates meta data. This has been fixed already for TWikiRelease01Sep2004, just verified. Please reopen this bug in case not.
