cascading spotlight importer

Hi!

I would like to extend apples spotlight importer for images to index
additional metadata. Does anyone know how to do this (I know it's
possible since it's been done in SpotMeta) or if cascading metadata
importers will become possible in future os x releases? Even though
it's doeable, it seems unnecessary to have to re-implement the entire
image importer just to index a few extra exif tags that aren't indexed
by the default importer (which is what I'd like to do).

any ideas?

thanks // erik
