How to write an extractor is well-documented, but I'm not sure the extractor
interface can handle this.
It seems to me that what is really needed is some kind of "pass-through
extractor" or filter. That is, a plug-in that can pass data to an existing
extractor. It's not enough that there be a ZIP extractor, but the ZIP extractor
must be able to recursively call other extractors for the files in the ZIP
file, and those extractors must be able to meaningfully submit metadata. I
don't know if the existing tracker interface allows this. I don't even know if
the tracker URI format used in extraction can handle URIs that refer to files
inside of archives.
Basically, I might need some help with this patch, and it might be better to
discuss the details off-line, if anyone is interested.
