Yes, exactly, and that is what I'm suggesting.  For printing entirely in
the user session it is a case of using an alternative to using CUPS
running on the local machine, so that means:

a) no filters or drivers; the job document is the PDF produced by the
application/print dialog

b) no queueing; submit the job directly to the print server, and if that
fails then explain why immediately
