Michael McCandless commented on TIKA-612:
-----------------------------------------

bq. This would make it easy for client applications to apply also other PDF 
parsing settings not currently known by Tika.

+1, this seems like it'd be more general.  EG, we could fold in 
get/setSuppressDuplicateOverlappingText (and move it off of PDFParser), and 
maybe also get/setEnableAutoSpace.

In general, since there are so many options on PDFTextStripper, and the "right" 
settings seems to vary PDF by PDF, it means it's important that we expose full 
control...
