I was not meaning to imply that we should make the uncoupled version of
this visible at the user interface --- that's a separate issue.

The obvious way would be to provide an override option for the size alone,
i.e.:

	set term post eps

would still be half as large and in portrait orientation, compared to

	set term post

but if you want it in normal size, you could use 
	
	set term post eps normalsize
or	set term post bigeps

or something like that.
