What about having multiple, slightly different, copies of, say, the |

"times" font from different packages. I've run into this several times. |

For an example see 75dpi vs 100dpi directories, a contrived example I |
11 |
admit, but one everyone has. I really think keeping font packages |
12 |
separate is a good idea because eventually you're likely to run into |
13 |
this I think. |
