Not likely. :-)

Quite -- which is why I believe that CUPS 1.6 will still support PPDs,
and why I didn't mention it in my original email.

It's been considered, yes. For the time being it isn't beneficial to

part of avahi-libs.

Hi,
Although the latest version of CUPS is 1.5.0, development is continuing
apace on 1.6. There are some important changes coming in 1.6 which
deserve to be pointed out.
Some time ago CUPS became an Apple project, and now some of the features
that are not relevant to Mac OS are being orphaned.
