For me FAX seems to be an outdated technology, IMHO we should not invest much
time. there are lots of other Possibilities like FAX printers or clients listed
on <http://www.hylafax.org/content/Client_Software>

> easily print to either a Post Script or a PDF.  You have removed this feature.

With what Version?

> created by Libre Office through CUP PDF is severely corrupted.

What bug number?

> Yes, I have in the past installed a Apple Laser Writer in CUPS to work around
> this problem.  It is not intuitive to the user. 

My question again: nothing found on
<http://www.hylafax.org/content/Client_Software>?

> p.s. you could always fix the print to CUPS PDF problem.  

Again: what bug number?

My conclusion:
PS export might bring benefit for some users and applications away from the
mainstream, but IMHO very few. There are lots of workarounds. So between all
those 100000 things in the line to be done I see this one somewhere nearby
99900.
