Quite possibly.
It would depend on the contents of the graphics as to whether this
is a good thing to do. 
If a white background is always intended, then this should be
encoded into the graphic IMHO, else it isn't truly *encapsulated*,
is it ?

Another advantage of doing this is that you can decide to true
%%BoundingBox extents, rather than having the application calculate
the minimal rectangle surrounding all the other objects.
