Description
The following metadata fields from the "FeatureCollection" object are discarded:
- "generator": "overpass-ide",
- "copyright": "....",
- "timestamp": "2017-07-17T03:42:02Z",
Probably others also.
Perhaps they could be stored in a column header, or a special row, which would assist with Round-tripping data ( https://github.com/wireservice/csvkit/issues/868 ).

Research direction
Start at the in2csv GeoJSON conversion entry point and compare FeatureCollection metadata handling with issue #868's round-tripping context. Done means the listed metadata, and any agreed additional fields, survives conversion in a documented and tested representation.
