Only problem I see is indefinitely maintaining a patch to TeX Live that
upstream is unlikely to take ... but other than that, this sounds great!
We'd also get a clearer idea of which packages are affected, rather than
setting it globally and rebuilding everything...
I'll also try to dig up at least one of the threads where there was some
discussion with upstream... hopefully without getting too caught up in
that old rabbit hole.
