No, because we need to be back-compatible with all the heavy symbol libraries
people currently have.
(Or for that matter to use light symbols directly for documentation diagrams
without needing to having to faff around with a database).
That's not say that a specific database backend (even the *default* database
backend bundled with gEDA, if you like) can't specify that, but I'm
interested in what's going on at a level which is a step closer to the user
than that.
