Can Breeze.js auto-generate metadata for non-database entities?

Question

I'm building a Single Page App with Breeze.js, WebApi and Entity Framework.

I would like to have the EFContextProvider-niceness of auto-generated metadata, but do not want to expose my DB model to the client.

I imagine having a bunch of client-specific DTOs. Can I get Breeze/EF to generate metadata for these entities?

Not yet, but we are working on publishing some guidance on how you might do this yourself and perhaps with some examples.
