Plug-in Idea - Amazon Metadata such as..

I'd love to be able to import certain Amazon listing data such as:
  • Printed Length
  • Release Date (ie, future releases available for pre-order)
  • Number of customer reviews
  • Amazon customer review rating

Bonus:
  • If it could denote if available on Audible (I think there is a plug-in out there that does this part, but I'm not sure. Still, it would be good if contained in an Amazon Metadata Plug-in.)
  • A column for the currently listed Kindle Price.
  • Actual publication date (could also be early Release date if Amazon provides that way).


These would be imported into existing and/or custom columns (which could be created via customization of the plug-in). Checkboxes turn those custom columns on/off if you don't want to use that feature.

I know Calibre already has the ability to specify the import of Amazon data on publication date and rating, but it would be nice for what I'm thinking of to have this ability available for specific use via a plug-in so as not to have to touch other metadata at the same time.

Thoughts on this, anyone? I'd love to have the ability to create it myself, but alas I currently do not.
