I would split it as separate modules. Sometimes things that start as an unpretentious 100 line script evolve a life of their own as other people find it and start contributing (it happened, for example, with luacov).
Sometimes we tend to devalue our own code as silly but you don't really know till you get it out there :) Also, you might end up encouraging the development of other new compatible modules for more file formats.
