Point taken. But if in doubt, I tend to agree with upstream authors. And
Derek has been bugged by the 'can't read encrypted pdf' issue for years. I
will not second-guess him. 

Which is to say: if someone wants a 'xpdf-i' package, be my guest. I'll
continue to maintain the 'standard' one if nobody steps up.
