Motivation
The current --postfix N flag takes a numeric pass count that has no relation to the document's actual quality gap. Users have to guess whether N=1 or N=3 is appropriate.
Proposal
--quality low stop at 90% text coverage, 1 postfix pass max
--quality medium stop at 95% text coverage, 2 postfix passes max
--quality high stop at 98% text coverage, 3 postfix passes max
Effort is tied to the actual gap, not a magic number.
Implementation notes
- Would need iterative re-verify per pass (compute marginal gain, stop if <1% improvement)
- Should have a cost ceiling (e.g. max 50% of original conversion cost)
--postfix N could remain as a low-level override
