Well, don't worry about me in this respect (I'm a one man DTP and web
design company myself).

Another problem will be that we already have a lot of non-latin
languages and that we will be getting more of these shortly (which are
not even all yet completely Unicode supported, AFAIK). Not speaking of
right-to-left running languages like Hebrew and (hopefully soon) Arabic
or Farsi and the administration work that comes with maintaining such a
file.

I just wonder who would like to jump through all these hoops just to
preserve a shadow. But, after all, this will not be my problem -- if it
only works. ;-)
