Closes: #1056

This is probably a feature people have wanted for a while. It may be a better idea to make it a configuration option but it is really not clear where this could go in the various devices and converters and such.

I would advise against putting it in LAParams because the simple fact of having an LAParams that is not None has wide-ranging side-effects on layout analysis.

It has a test :)
