Access to metadata keys in the PD model
---------------------------------------

                 Key: PDFBOX-764
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-764
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: PDModel
    Affects Versions: 1.2.0
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Neil McErlean
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.3.0


Currently 1.2.0 I don't think it's possible to get a document's metadata keys 
from the PD model.
It is possible to get the metadata keys by calling 
PDDocumentInformation.getDictionary().keySet() and calling getName() on the 
COSName objects returned.

But that means having to know about the COSDictionary and COSName objects i.e. 
the lower-level COS model.
It would be nice to be able to retrieve the metadata keys directly from the PD 
model.

I'm about to add a patch that does this. The patch will also add a new test 
class.
