Heh.  Actually I'm thinking of doing something similar for some
parts of lpr & friends.  There are some messages which sometimes
print out a small number (200 bytes) and other times print a
huge number (>2 gig).  I've even exchanged a few messages with
BDE on what the best implementation would be.

I already have too many things I'd like to get done before the
code freeze, so I won't get to this before that.  However, if
this is still around after the freeze, then bug me again and
I'll claim the PR and look into it.
