We might want to add it to the actual templates, but the 
add-html-head-content.vm itself is something we created to let people 
inject their own content, and we probably wouldn't want to depend on 
people including it there in their version of it if we thought it should 
be included.

The binding templates defintely weren't done at the same time or by the 
same people as the views. I didn't recall the <meta> tag being there, so I 
don't know when it got added or by whom.
