Since GRF files refer to a specific set of filters and to
external resources like files and devices in an absolute
way, it is good advice since they are not very portable.
However, if you are careful not to use filters other than
yours and the stock ones, not to use exlicit device wrappers
and to modify the GRF contents in code to refer to actual
files before Load()ing the IStream, it should be quite safe
and portable.
