Is there/will there be a configuration option to set the level globally?
That would seem sensible to me, as users who need PDF/X-3 (or PDF/X-1a,
or whatever) could then just "set it and forget it", while the rest of
us can move to PDF 1.5 seamlessly. Something like
tlmgr pdfversion 1.5
tlmgr pdfversion 1.4
...
(With appropriate documentation, of course.)
