So you're basically asking if there's a way to do it without
an intermediate file?  Not sure why that matters but you could
do it with some ugly thing like:

oggenc ... \
  -a `metaflac --show-vc-field=artist | sed '/^.*=//'` \
  -t ...
  -l ...

oggenc can't take comments from stdin since that's already
reserved for being able to pipe in audio data.
