Partial files possible?

I'm not a C programmer, but I was wondering if it
would be possible to add a feature that allows the
conversion of partial or damaged PDFs. Something like:
Ignore all cross references and go through the file
object by object - if it's complete decode it and save
it in a file like obj001.jpg or obj002.txt (or .html)
This way one could read at least what's left of any
important PDF..
No tool i've found so far seems to be able to do this
(or maybe nobody thought of this feature yet?), except
maybe adobe acrobat itself wich I didn't test.
