I don't think beating Margarito (or beating Cotto again) will do all that much for Pacquiao's legacy. Obviously it will do a little, but he's already accomplished so much and beaten so many great fighters that only a fight with Mayweather or another truly elite P4P fighter (like Paul Williams or a Sergio Martinez) will enhance it further.
No matter what, Pacquiao, unless his reputation is legitimately tarnished, will go down as one of the greatest fighters of all time.
