That sounds like a plan.  For this particular spell, the following map 
entries need to be added to web2c/updmap.cfg:

Map Acorn.map
Map AnnSton.map
Map ArtNouvc.map
Map ArtNouv.map
Map Carrickc.map
Map Eichenla.map
Map EileenBl.map
Map Eileen.map
Map Elzevier.map
Map GotIn.map
Map GoudyIn.map
Map Kinigcap.map
Map Konanur.map
Map Kramer.map
Map MorrisIn.map
Map Nouveaud.map
Map Romantik.map
Map Rothdn.map
Map RoyalIn.map
Map Sanremo.map
Map Starburst.map
Map Typocaps.map
Map Zallman.map

Should I check for each individual entry or perhaps add a comment at the 
top with the spell name and such and just search for that?  Also, if the 
spell is dispelled, what's the safest way to remove the above entries.  I 
think this might be one area where Gentoo's modular approach works well. 
They have an /etc/texmf/updmap.d directory where ebuilds for TeX fonts 
can add separate files which then get concatenated together to create the 
web2c/updmap.cfg file.  I'm not sure if the utility that creates the 
web2c/updmap.cfg file is part of TeXlive or if it's something the Gentoo 
dev team created.  It certainly does simplify installing separate font 
packages.
