[OS X TeX] gwTeX request: pdfcprot

Hi

I just learned of the existence of the unfortunately named [0] package 
pdfcprot.sty. Its function is to turn on margin kerning, so you don't 
have to go through the rigmarole of including [1] in your document.

Anyway, could it please be included with gwTeX? It would make a great 
addition to the template document I'm (sort of) in the process of 
writing. Is there any chance it could be sym-linked to 
marginkerning.sty or something similar? Are there precedents for or 
against this practise?

[0]: (when are people going to get over the 8 character limit for 
package names? What are we using here, DOS?)
[1]: \input protcode.tex 
\newcommand{\marginkerning}{\setprotcode\font{\itshape 
\setprotcode\font}{\bfseries \setprotcode\font}{\bfseries \itshape 
\setprotcode\font}{\small \setprotcode \font}{\small \itshape 
\setprotcode \font}{\small \itshape \bfseries \setprotcode 
\font}{\footnotesize \setprotcode \font}{\footnotesize \itshape 
\setprotcode \font}{\footnotesize \itshape \bfseries \setprotcode 
\font} \pdfprotrudechars = 2} \begin{document} \marginkerning

Regards,
Will Robertson
