If this does not eat too much time, and seems to be the best solution,
why not. I'd rather you not spend too much time on RTF support,
though.

Python libraries that claim some kind of RTF support are:

* calibre (available in Debian Squeeze)
* python-pyth (available in Debian testing)

Those might be valid candidates for adding meta-data read/write
support.

No idea. I'll let you suggest what is the way to go in your opinion.

Have you considered using Hachoir? It pretends to support a great
bunch of file formats, including a few video containers. References:

* http://pypi.python.org/pypi/hachoir-parser/

Thanks. Make sure you update your proposal on the GSoC webapp too at
some point.
