[Qgis-user] Listing GIS data in subdirectories

I'm often presented with piles of geodata from a range of sources and then
must characterize, categorize, prioritize, and otherwise process them into
a coherent body of data. Is anyone aware of a plugin or script that could
use something like ogrinfo/gdal to point at drive/directory tree and create
a delimited file/table describing major file types of spatial data
structured like the following?

"ID", -- incrementing number
"Feature Name", -- xyz.shp, or abc.tif
"Driver name", -- Shapefile, FileGDB, Geopackage
"Full Path", -- full path to file, including inside feature dataset
"Geometry", -- point, line, poly, raster, etc.
"Feature Count", -- number of vector features
"Geographic Coordinate System Name",
"Projected Coordinate System Name",
"Horizontal Units",
"North Bounding Coordinate",
"East Bounding Coordinate",
"South Bounding Coordinate",
"West Bounding Coordinate",
"Created Date", -- from file system?
"Modified Date", --  OGRinfo seems to report something for the DBF in
Shapefiles?
