 I don't know if this is feasible, but in my use case this would be very
 useful. If there were some form of option (keepoldifnull?) in the .script
 file to indicate that a field should be preserved as is when re-indexing a
 record with the same unique reference, I wouldn't have to re-parse a large
 collection of large PDFs, rather, I could just update the title, author,
 etc. fields per record.

 Currently using 1.0.8
