> TIKA-1268 added the capability to extract embedded images as regular embedded 
> resources...a great feature!
> However, for some use cases, it might not be desirable to extract those types 
> of embedded resources.  I see two ways of allowing the client to choose 
> whether or not to extract those images:
> 1) set a value in the metadata for the extracted images that identifies them 
> as embedded PDXObjectImages vs regular image attachments.  The client can 
> then choose not to process embedded resources with a given metadata value.
> 2) allow the client to set a parameter in the PDFConfig object.
> My initial proposal is to go with option 2, and I'll attach a patch shortly.
