As the brilliant engineer that has preceded me wrote, it was a design choice. In my opinion this is a strong limitation as I would prefer to delegate the extraction task to an intermediate processor instead of relying on Solr. Furthermore I don't like to have to send all the metadata in the header ( and this can cause problems in the header size accepted from the server as well if we have too much metadata extracted) .
