There is a philosophical issue: EPS (and SVG) are intended to be used as
embedded vector graphics. PDF is a document format. EPS/SVG are the
diagrams and illustrations; PDF is the whole book. That said, there
could very well be use cases for embedding one PDF into another, so
perhaps I am thinking too narrow here.
It then falls to the development team to make this request a reality
within the limits of their abilities and time and factoring in any
technical roadblocks.
And this is exactly what scares me: I don't think we should go to all
lengths here in order to fulfill a user poll.
No one is (or should be) suggesting "all lengths". I do not want to
rathole on this point, as I do not want to take up more of your time
than necessary. But perhaps it is worth taking a moment to examine why
you believe this work is pushing your limits of comfort. At least, I
cannot see how actionable user feedback driving features is anything to
be scared of. But I would readily concede that view, if your natural
instincts are onto something I am overlooking.
Again, I feel like maybe I am making things worse joining this
discussion, so I have no problems just sitting back if I am being a
disruption. At best, I am a very minor contributor to the LSR, not a
developer. I really do value all the hard work you all put into this
project and would never want to overstep boundaries and make
unreasonable demands.
