yes, but it could be implemented without sharing like:

\pdfmapline{+ cmr10 CMR10

ok, that could work (and is a useful feature too) but in y case it would mean that i'd have to use different font definitions, so i'd gain nothing; actually i want to avoid new font definitions: \def\SetFont#1{\font#1=cmr10 at 10pt} \SetFont\a \SetFont\b \pdfsetenc\b{

i thought it would be just another independent tfmname, aliased to cmr10 only for tfm/vf read. TeX wouldn't notice at all (but i don't have any preference what to implement/if time :-)

sure, but it should be a bit of a challenge for you -)

yes, only what can't be done by macros :-)
