This makes us write 'continuous' backups to /.lotus[miner]/kvlog/metadata, which means that when the metadata leveldb gets corrupted, it's still very easy to recover the latest state

looks ok, but is there a replay procedure to restore from the log?

Yep, normal backup restore works with those files (only manual for now)
