from http://docs.python.org/download.html and
http://docs.python.org/3.0/download.html you can download the python
documentation in many formats (html, pdf, txt), I think auto-generated
by the .rst source.

While html and txt does not, the pdf format, supports some simple
"meta-data" infos about the document: other than the number of pages,
the page size, the creator, etc... (all auto-filled) there are 4 "keys"
that the current pdf miss to fill and I think it's important: Title,
Subject, Keywords, and Author.

try, for example, to use the simple pdfinfo tool (from
http://poppler.freedesktop.org/) to inspect the current pdf

erh, what is supposed to contain "using.pdf"? and "distutils.pdf"?

(Yes, I know what they contain, but...)

If the pdf were "tagged", not only me, but also my OS will know what's
in these pdf (see nepomuk/strigi/tracker/beagle programs, helping me
find what I'm searching
