It is Pd, so I think we should at least make an effort to make things easy to parse in Pd. I tried your parser using data that is probably closer to what we might use, and it didn't work at all. If someone can get a Pd parser working that can handle the commas well, then I would be OK using commas in the meta data format.
I think that you will eventually find a context in which you can't use commas and in which you will want to put the tags, and then you will regret not having just used underscore or dash or capitals as separator.
Here's my data: tags - pure data, frequency modulation, synthesis
here are six fairly common ways to join multiple words:
pure-data frequency-modulation synthesis pure_data frequency_modulation synthesis pure.data frequency.modulation synthesis puredata frequencymodulation synthesis pureData frequencyModulation synthesis PureData FrequencyModulation Synthesis
