Great. Just to make sure that I understand correctly...I think I was going to
head this route at one point via subclassing EmbeddedResourceHandler. Can your
MediaTypeDisablingDocumentSelector tell the difference between a jpeg that was
attached to a PDF (basic attachment) and one that was derived from a
PDXObjectImage?

> 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.
