Resource Tracking in PSGenerator

Glossary:
DSC = PostScript Document Structuring Conventions

I'm currently implementing a generic DSC parser. Resources as described
in the DSC spec need to be tracked while writing PostScript and also
while parsing a DSC-compliant file. For FOP, I've added some methods for
resource tracking directly in the PSGenerator. But in the light of the
DSC parser this resource tracking is in the wrong place. I plan to
extract the resource tracking from the PSGenerator into a separate class
I can also use in the DSC parser.

My question: Is anyone using the resource tracking part of PSGenerator outside
of FOP/Batik? I ask because your code will break if I just remove the
methods. If anyone is using it I can also just deprecate the methods but
I prefer the easy route. So please speak up if this is an issue for any
of you.


Thanks,
Jeremias Maerki
