Right now Rev uses the OS APIs to get the file info, so it's about as 
efficient as it can be.

I can see the benefit of using EXIF, but since this requires additional 
work and processing time, and only applies to a subset of a very small 
number of file tyes, this sounds like an excellent candidate for an 
external.

Anyone here interested in writing it?
