I couldn't reproduce that.  For me using a current emacs copy from bzr,
they appear without the {.  Ditto with emacs 24.3.

In revno: 112289 in Emacs bzr, I've made the following changes:

There's a new customization option `reftex-label-regexps'.  It is a list
of regexps that match labels.  The default value matches plain
\\label{..} definitions, and keyval [..., label={...}, ...]
definitions.  The regexp I've used previously was too lax, and the
result was that also xlabel/ylabel etc. were matched.

Of course, now your metalabels aren't matched anymore, too.  But you can
easily add a new entry that is a copy of the default entry for keyval
labels with "meta" prepended to "label".
