aw->fs: This would bring no advantages since in the VOC there is also no hint
that the view is a print preview. Someone is making new print and print dialog
concepts in the last time who investigated not the slightest thoughts about
OutputDevice::GetOutDevType() == OUTDEV_PRINTER usages throughout the office at
all :-(
So, to solve it at the VOC it would also be necessary to make it known there,
e.g. at the OC where already methods like 'isOutputToPrinter()' exist, but also
rely on the OutDev BEING a printer to return true.
What is wanted is more something like 'behave like a printer, but let's get rid
of OutDevPrinter'. Despite that it's probably a good idea to get rid of
PrinterOutputDevices, as said, the concept maker seem to have not thought about
consequences.
There is no easy way at all except to continue using printer devices for print
preview, but from what is wanted it would be better to teach a pixel primitive
renderer to 'behave' like a printer, i think.

Who is doing such changes, why and how...?
