Actually, what I meant was that the system reduction of 85% doesn't equal
the system size of 100% at 85% page reduction. I was wrong, though, or
rather the difference is very small and doesn't matter.

But what you describe could indeed be a job for a plugin. However, in my
specific case it wouldn't help me, since I have to change quite a lot
anyway, and copying the music into a new template is easier.
