KFileMetadata extractors. Though, the actual code is already sufficiently separated, only the repository contains to many implementations with too many dependencies. Probably plain text and text based (e.g. xml) extractors should stay in the main repository, while extractors requiring a lot of third party (ffmpeg, exiv2, ...) code should move into a separate repository.
