Starting the discussion again on this issue.

Your suggestion regarding specialized exception and a getter for params is 
already incorporated in PR.
https://github.com/apache/tika/pull/91#commits-pushed-64db961

Suggestion related to Type system is pending. I see what we are getting with 
the support for value Type. 
However, I still have a concern as I feel this is incomplete. Whats our take on 
multivalued params (aka Arrays of integers and strings as parameter values)?

> We can currently configure parsers by the following means:
> 1) programmatically by direct calls to the parsers or their config objects
> 2) sending in a config object through the ParseContext
> 3) modifying .properties files for specific parsers (e.g. PDFParser)
> Rather than scattering the landscape with .properties files for each parser, 
> it would be great if we could specify parser parameters in the main config 
> file, something along the lines of this:
> {noformat}
>     <parser class="org.apache.tika.parser.audio.AudioParser">
>       <params>
>         <int name="someparam1">2</int>
>         <str name="someOtherParam2">something or other</str>
>       </params>
>       <mime>audio/basic</mime>
>       <mime>audio/x-aiff</mime>
>       <mime>audio/x-wav</mime>
>     </parser>
> {noformat}
