I am writing an application that requires exporting data to an excel file (and later re-importing that data after some changes). However, the way the excel file is generated does not guarantee a set amount of columns, depending on what is being exported. To remedy this, I intend on adding metadata (possibly by injecting XML metadata) to the excel file itself, hidden from the user, so I know what to expect upon import.
I do not know if there is a way of accomplishing this with the current version of EPPlus, although I have not examined the code base in detail just yet. Until then, I'll just mark this as a feature request!

I have checked the documentation and found no current method of adding this but have found a possible solution proposed by MSDN's website: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.office.core.customxmlpart.aspx
