Andrew Brooks suggested to use a binary/hex editor and it worked perfectly
for me in this case. Metadata is correct and the image itself remained 
readable.

GDAL has five different JPEG2000 drivers. Do they have any common 
georeferencing metadata format which they all could read and write, 
and also have a common interpretation about how it is done correctly?
By a quick look it seems that not all of them can write GeoJP2
nor OGC-GML and perhaps not even world files.
