dBpoweramp Music Converter with the OGG decoder installed fixes this problem. It is freeware.
Please note that the file download in the link above is the trial version of the dBpoweramp 'Reference' version. It converts to dBpoweramp 'Free' after 21 days. The free version still has the metadata display feature in the 'Details' view.

There is a more simple way now, using the property handler for ogg files:
Taglib Property Handler (open source)
TLPH is based on TagLib Audio Meta-Data Library. About the latter:
Currently it supports both ID3v1 and ID3v2 for MP3 files, Ogg Vorbis comments and ID3 tags and Vorbis comments in FLAC, MPC, Speex, WavPack TrueAudio, WAV, AIFF, MP4 and ASF files.

AudioShell is a free shell extension for OGG and also includes other formats like Opus, FLAC and APE tags.

– rjnagle – 2012-09-11T17:10:17.917@rjnagle That question is a possible duplicate of this one. See my comment on this answer to my question (or my edit to that answer, if it has been approved).
– galacticninja – 2012-09-12T07:54:12.597I didn't probe deeply enough to realize you were the OP on the question. I thought you were loading up the answer with info on a product you were affiliated with. I still think the comparison info link is a bit advertisement like, but if you want to put it through again, I'll approve it. Please accept my apologies. – jonsca – 2012-09-12T08:29:29.523
@jonsca I put that edit to AdamKessel's answer to help others, like rjnagle, who are looking for a freeware solution. That edit is mainly to provide info and links to show that there is a freeware version, hence the comparison info. Is it possible to "un-reject" that edit suggestion of mine?
– galacticninja – 2012-09-12T10:47:45.390@galacticninja I have no way to unreject it, regrettably. I will try flagging the answer, but I don't think a mod would be able to reverse it either. – jonsca – 2012-09-12T10:50:46.260
@galacticninja Oliver incorporated the information, but if you want to submit another edit, someone can put it through. – jonsca – 2012-09-12T11:27:46.367
