You do realize that at some point we have to break backwards  
compatibility moving forward.  Otherwise we get stuck working around  
BAD IDEAS that were done very badly in the first place.  Asterisk is  
full of stuff like this that we can't fix because the fear of  
breaking backwards compatibility.

Fixing things correctly sometimes require some breakage.
