 `get_metadata_raw()` applies `get_{$meta_type}_metadata` filters, which
 means that when trying to filter a single meta key, this function will be
 executed for EVERY meta key and require a condition that checks for the
 correct meta key to filter.

 It would be a great idea to have `get_{$meta_key}_metadata` filters. Since
 `$meta_key` is some generic string, though, it cannot be used directly,
 and must be adapted first to suit a PHP function name by replacing any
 non-alphanumeric character with an underscore.
