Just to demonstrate that it is not Christoph Bier alone who would like
to have the improvements of teTeX 3.x: I'm currently writing a book
where I have to provide a PDF copy which will be printed just as it is
(Book On Demand by Libri) and therefore I really would like to have the
microtype extensions.
