Re: metadate.py

As highlighted on your plugin itself, you are reading the files  
twice, and as a side effect, the noted probable performance hit. I'm  
not sure if there is a clean way to do what you want, but I do  
suggest that you store your read values somewhere like a pickle file.  
If your files are not modified, just read the values off the pickle  
database. That would really improve processing time IMO.

This is one of the reasons why we just try to get enough metadata by  
reading the filename and the timestamp.
