Depending on what resource it is, and how it would be used, there may
or may not be a reason not to use it.

Would this be a feature that works only if there is nonfree software
in your system load?

Implementing such a feature would turn Emacs into an inducement for
people to choose systems with nonfree software in them.  We must not
do that!  So we cannot include such a feature.

In other words, we must have a policy of not enhancing nonfree software.

However, the thinkpagds that we can use do have some acceleration.
If your feature works usably on an X200 or T400 type machine,
then it is ok.
