   No, the mkii solution was on the level of the map-files (just use

   that is not applicable to mkiv.

so "houston, we have a problem here" .
I think we need  Taco , or go tthrough luatex-ref.pdf .

 
it's no problem to provide that feature in mkiv, but i need some real string arguments as well as to be sure that i'll never be bothered by side effects of fonts not being in a pdf file

Fonts not included can sometimes speeds up things when you are coding, but I never use this feature -- too much dangerous.
I never used full inclusion too, but it's a prepress job (and yes, I have a prepress office);
there is also ghostscript that does this kind of distiller stuffs.
Full inclusion can be useful, at least to cover the same feature of pdftex.
