   * Allow users to build composite parsers with configurable strategies via the config file ([[https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1509|TIKA-1509]] and CompositeParserDiscussion).  We will be working towards this gradually through Tika 1.8 and 1.9.  By Tika 2.0, however, this will be the default.
  
+  * Allow for easily configurable parser sub-packages.  The tika-app, tika-server and tika-bundle jars are now pushing or are > 50MB.  It would be great if users easily could specify a subset of parsers they care about, either a la carte or by category (image, common office files (MSOffice, PDF, etc.), environmental data) and only get the dependencies required for that subset of parsers.

Or at least come to some accommodation that will allow for both easy key/values access and more advanced access for those who know what they're doing.
