But the information that's in *my* project will be identical to what's
in everyone else's project.  That's a waste.  And it also makes it more
labor-intensive to switch footprints, something that I think the tool
should be able to deal with for me.

Feel free to continue hand-crafting your own symbols.  I'd rather a
slightly different path.
