Well, I've luckily learned a long time ago to never work directly off
original log data and always put in a translation layer even when it
just hands through the original data at the beginning.  So it won't be
that much of a problem.

So what's your transition strategy with that?  The distros will likely
decide to go for that option (less chance of breakage on their side if
they make it an alternative to classic) and then never look back.
