That would fall under the heading of a new feature, and one we need
to test some more - the way you have implemented it might not work
with all printers.  The addition of the non-standard
"%%DeferredFeature" comment and interactions with different features
(i.e. conflicts) need to be dealt with properly, and there are other
non-trivial changes we need to handle such as features that are
implemented as JCL commands instead of PostScript...
