Yes, if nobody picks up this trait, then we don't have to worry about it either.
Within FOP, only PDFRenderer uses it. Notice that my patch does break custom
renderers at this point, but they can be fixed with a one-line code change. The
only way not to break them at all would be to pass PV key and ID in separate 
traits.

Well, I think I can do it this week. The more I look at that attribute, the more
I hate it, so I guess I'm motivated :-)

I wish you all a great time at the conference and in Amsterdam (my hometown). At
least the weather is fine!

OK, I'll take care of it.
