yes but I figured I wouldn't need it just yet

it should be fairly easy to interface to libvorbis and libid3tag to do 
all read/writing of music tags

for read/write metadata to ms word and open document - libgsf (its 
available without gnome dependencies)

for images, libexif

if we had the above we could then drop libextractor from tracker's 
dependencies and make it even smaller :)

feel free to volunteer!
