That should be sufficient. I think I even attempted this once but I can't remember where I put my experiments.
But the code has got so complicated now, that I need to be in a pretty good place to make this happen. Backwards compatibility could be achieved by checking the first argument for ".pdf". -Black Squirrel (talk) 15:05, 3 April 2020 (EDT)
