Reminds me of the U of Chicago Physics prof who took an interest in coffee stains. I believe he even has a full font of coffee stains; perhaps that could be the next step.
http://indianapublicmedia.org/amomentofscience/ring-around-t... for public article about the research and http://www-personal.umich.edu/~rddeegan/PDF/Coffee_Rings_1_n... for the Nature article about it.
As is, this addition to LaTeX is a bit redundant for me... all papers I have soon enough have this feature anyways.
