OK, that works. Two more questions:
- can I differentiate between different types, for example have different
props for images and pdfs?
- is it possible to store the metadata in a separate XML file, instead of
webdav props? It would be nice to reuse the metadata we have on documents,
for instance on PDFs. I think there should be a workflow involved, so that
you add a pdf and then edit the corresponding metadata.xml. Then the
metadata from the xml should be extracted as properties on the PDF.
