Lightbulb Changes Import plugin

Hi All,
I use to select and save some ebook in a folder "export folder" (save to disk) and then read them with my ipad.
For instance saving an ebook will save:
  • filename.pdf (the eook itself)
  • filename.jpg (cover)
  • filename.opf (metadata file)
On the Ipad I may add some annotations to the pdf file and would like to add some comments in the opf (<dc:description> section).

Then I copy back to some "import folder" all the files.

I would like to be able to reimport and replace with my changes.

Of course the "import folder" depends on the library (can be books, magazines...).

I would like to have a button launch a scan of the "import folder", diff contents with "export folder" and import only the modified files, then delete all files in both folders.

I haven't found anything existing so far.
Would this be a difficult plugin dev ?

Anyone interested in such a feature ?
