Theoretically, yes. In terms of "searching" this would be very simple to do. Anyone can provide a search plugin which provides searching over different types. We currently have the following search plugins - * File * Emails * Contacts I'm going to be adding some more for "Events/Calendar" entries. In term of actually fetching / saving metadata, it should be possible. I just haven't figured out how. -- Vishesh Handa
