Decrease the size of Automator applications

The comment says up front that it's only for "crazy" people--i.e. obsessive types. And telling an obsessive not to worry about something isn't very productive. :)

It's an interesting fact, anyway; I wonder what's taking up all that extra space. Maybe the "package" mechanism?

In the test workflow I just created, it's overwhelmingly localized resources that support things like the menu-bar progress indicator.
