Yes, it is doing things the right way. :)  I've committed your patch to
CVS.

It is too bad that pdftotext doesn't provide a straightforward way to
get at the metadata.  Maybe we should be parsing the output of
'pdftotext -htmlmeta' instead --- it puts the metadata in <meta> tags,
and the HTML it generates is so simplistic that we should be able to
strip it out without too many problems.
