Is it possible (well, ok, I'm reasonably sure it's possible, I guess I'm really asking if it might happen) to separate the "Many of the original in-game NPC's have gained portraits" portion into a separate, optional component? I'd like to be able to install the portraits even when I don't plan on doing TLR in a particular install. I tend to re-install fairly often, only selecting the MOD's I want for a couple of run-throughs, then re-install again for the next set of run-throughs, but would like to have the new portraits appear even when I'm not planning on playing the Irenicus-related parts of TLR.

Well, I looked into it. The problem is - many of the new portraits are those of new creatures (Rilev, nymphs, Abaia, imps, Ybdiel, yugoloth etc.) What remains if LR is not installed is very little - Gorion, Cespy, Saemon, Chyil, Gambling Cambion, general Jamis, Carston, Cyric, Elmo and Yakman. I am not sure it is worth gutting the mod and offering these portraits as a separate component. Especially since it will require some amount of work on my part - separating bmp's into folders re-writing tp2, etc. I might do it if there were enough voices asking for it.
