I should add that if this change adds too much burden to teams
(to change tests, scripts, etc), I can add the compatibility support
where possible to ease the transition.

And then have a second flag day when I remove it.

I'd rather take the pain now -- but if I'm being unreasonable please
let me know!

Thanks,
