Research direction
The issue does not name a file, test, or entry point. Start by locating Pillow's JPEG2000 support and its metadata-writing path, then determine how optional XML metadata should be represented and tested. Done means JPEG2000 images can optionally be written with XML metadata while existing writes remain supported.
