I would suggest now to name the module Win32::Storage::ReadSummaryInfo.
I like this better than before, but why not Win32::Document::SummaryInfo?
Because not only MS documents can be read? There is also the possibility to read the summary informations
from text and and other files, if there is a summary information available.

Hmm, I think it must be my Mac experience showing through. I'll defer in this case, but permit me to further detail my thoughts anyway... When I think "Document" I mentally include any non-active file, including MS Office files, text files, PDF files, etc. but excluding executables. To me "Win32::Storage" and "Win32::File" suggest the manifestation of the file in the filesystem, not the the contents of that file. But perhaps my vocabulary of simply off base.
