Yes, but it is more complicated than that.
Its polymorphic and a mixed type.

The way I've done the wrapper for the CDATA is obviosly wrong. It doesn't
work if the wrapper has attributes like this case.

We should do like the old parsing did, which is to assume the wrapper
(StringValueMetaData) but then replace if we see a nested element
(e.g. ListValueMetaData).

I don't think its just a case of creating a new ParticleHandler to create the wrapper
because we don't want the ListValueMetaData injected onto the StringValueMetaData
we want to replace it if we see a subelement.

I'll look at it once I've resolved the other issues I've found.
