We're getting into realms here, where my knowledge is extremely limited; I'll
gladly accept advice from those more experienced, who may be able to suggest
how this could be achieved.
Maybe, rather than restrict things to just a few specific capabilities,
provide a pdfroff option to pass arbitrary GhostScript options through to the
back end postprocessor, (which of course, *is* GhostScript)? To avoid
collisions with groff options, that should probably be a long form option.
Any suggestions for a suitable name?

Keith.
