Ok Guys I'm gonna try the following and comments are welcome.
1) I'm gonna add code in org.dspace.app.xmlui.configuration.Theme that
stores an additional tag (similar to handle=) called 'metadata' with
appropriate methods hasMetadata() etc.
2) In ThemeMatcher I add an additional section testing if if
(rule.hasMetadata()
&& dso.getMetadata(...)....)
and so on and so forth
