Pre-made texture sheet?

[Gnomre]

It'd probably not be useful for mods which go through lots of change very quickly or those who use stand alone random 3rd party units, but for large, mostly static mods this could be good. Instead of making the user's PC compile the 2048x2048 texture sheet every time he/she loads the game like we do now, it might be better to allow the mod to have a pre-"rendered" sheet that the user would only need to load. Since we have a new mod handling format to look forward to, it might be best to make it a tag in the mod's config file: PremadeTextures=1; or something. I haven't looked at the source for this part, and I likely wouldn't understand it even if I did, so I have no idea if this would actually be possible. It'd probably help cut back on load times that much more, though.
