Right, then approach 2 might work better, or Tyler's suggestion to just modify the existing parser. > I'll poke around here a bit and see if anything stands out. A related point is the way the POI container detector uses the TikaInputStream.get/setOpenContainer() mechanism [1] to pass the results of any early heavy lifting from type detection to the parsing phase [2].
