Yes. I was looking into the MetadataLevels enums. But, as you wrote, the 
level is always set to "All" using the importer GUI.

An alternative is to implement a custom dialog for the reader. I was 
hesitating with that, since it will interfere with the API and, perhaps, 
leads to problems in headless mode!?

Cheers,
Christoph
